Spring and Fall is the nineteenth studio album by Australian folk rock singer-songwriter Paul Kelly which was issued in October 2012 on his own label, Gawd Aggie and distributed via Universal Music. It is due to be issued in Europe and United States in November. The release is his first studio album since Stolen Apples in 2007, and is a concept album as a song cycle "which focuses on a love story told from different points of view". It was produced by Kelly, Dan Kelly (his nephew), and Greg "J" Walker (C. W. Stoneking, The Whitlams) and was available as a digipak or digital download. The lead single, "New Found Year", was released in early October ahead of the album's release. The album debuted on the ARIA Albums Chart at number eight.
Spring and Fall is the nineteenth studio album by Paul Kelly, an Australian singer-songwriter. After releasing his live 8× CD box set, The A – Z Recordings in September 2010, for about a year-and-a-half, Kelly was performing and being filmed for a musical documentary, Paul Kelly: Stories of Me (November 2012) produced by Shark Island Productions. Afterwards Kelly began work on Spring and Fall – its recording started in July 2012 using an old country hall in South Gippsland where he was joined by his nephew, Dan Kelly, and Machine Translations' Greg "J" Walker. It was mixed by Andy Stewart (Gotye, The Whitlams, C.W. Stoneking, Brighter Later) at The Mill in mid-August and was produced by Kelly, Dan and Walker (C. W. Stoneking, The Whitlams). Kelly is due to tour in support of the album in February and March 2013.
