Between the Stars is the fourth studio album by American rock band Flyleaf. The album was released on September 16, 2014, through Loud & Proud Records.[14] The group funded the album through PledgeMusic.[15] It marks the group's only record to feature Kristen May on vocals, who replaced original vocalist Lacey Sturm who exited the band in 2012.[14] May exited the band in 2016. It is the group's first album to be recorded by producer Don Gilmore.[14] Studio recording was completed in Los Angeles.[16] The album's lead single "Set Me on Fire" debuted on July 1, 2014, at Revolver.[17]

The album sold over 8,200 copies in the United States in its first week of release to land at position No. 33 on the Billboard 200 chart.[18]

The album title is derived from a lyric in the song, "Magnetic".[citation needed]

Background and release

[edit | edit source]

Kristen May stated about making the record: "When we started writing this record, we had a common hardship. Their singer had quit, and my previous band had broken up. As writers, we weren't really sure how to move forward. At the same time, we all had this shared feeling of hope and a second chance. Music came out of those experiences from coming together and persevering through whatever doubts and trials we faced in our lives. It felt like home once we began making music." She also stated: "I hope it's an album people can listen to for years to come. We put our hearts and souls into it, and I want them to hear that."[19]

"Set Me On Fire" was released as the album's lead single and peaked at no. 36 on the Billboard Mainstream Rock chart.[20] The album's second and final single, "Thread," reached no. 37 on the same chart.[20]
