Felt is the debut studio album by Anchor & Braille, the side-project of Anberlin lead vocalist, Stephen Christian. The album was released through Christian's own label Wood Water Records and Federal Distribution on August 4, 2009 and was produced, engineered and mixed by Aaron Marsh from fellow Florida-based band Copeland. Felt debuted at number 30 on the Billboard Top Heatseekers chart.

Felt opts for a sweet, simple vibe which juxtaposes almost jarringly against the crushing, somber numbers that populate it. One moment the album coos a harmonious blend of violins, piano and minimal guitar involvement that supports rather than overshadows Christian's recognisable and talented voice, the next it uses the same wonderful combination but in an emotionally draining way. The trend is self evident throughout the album; start from Rust (The Short Story of Mary Agnosia), which leads nicely into Like Steps In a Dance

Anchor & Braille Felt. Artist Info: Discography Album length: 11 tracks: 45 minutes, 27 seconds Street Date: August 4, 2009. After years in the making, we at last have a full-length Anchor & Braille record in our hands. Stephen Christian, best known as the lyricist and lead singer of alt-rockers Anberlin, is the face behind Anchor & Braille, and while this isn't an Anberlin record, there is an aura of both familiarity and uniqueness around the entire project that should please fans and non-fans of the band alike. First, a little history

This was a good choice, because if he had sung a lot more, Anchor & Braille would have ceased to be a true Stephen Christian solo album and instead become a side project with Aaron Marsh. Now, of course, that probably would have been a killer album, but it was not the intent for Felt, and these guys did a good job keeping that balance. Overall: Taking a break from Anberlin, Stephen Christian has penned an album that explores the softer side of his musical creativity and a more introspective side to his lyrical poeticism.
