IRONTON, Ohio - s4story -- Southern Ohio Pop/Rock band The Hedgehogs announce the release of their new album, It Was a Dark and Stormy Night, preceded by two new singles, "Orange Day Parade" and "Let Me Roll It." Featured in Spin Magazine's "Now Hear This: June 2026" by Ron Hart, the band has been heard on the Blue Orchid playlist All Monkey Gone to Heaven and Tony Michaelides's radio program The Promised Land. The band continues to expand its colorful, atmospheric sound on its psychedelia-tinged second album.

The album's first single, "Orange Day Parade," unfolds like a hypnotic procession, winding through shifting textures. The cut blends rhythmic drive with psychedelic guitars, creating a prismatic, dreamlike atmosphere. The second single, "Let Me Roll It," drapes a classic McCartney groove in psychedelic colors, with reverberant vocals, lilting bass, rich keyboards, and warmly distorted guitars. Balancing sturdy Rock with melodic Pop, it transforms the original into something unmistakably The Hedgehogs' own.

The new album, It Was a Dark and Stormy Night, released on October 30, moves between hard-edged guitar work, acoustic passages, melodic Pop/Rock, natural soundscapes, and psychedelic textures. The record presents a nature-centered musical cycle upon which the band hangs some of the darker, moodier facets of their work. The result is an album that balances adventurous songwriting with a strong sense of continuity. The album was mastered in France by François Michaud of Wild Horse Studio.
