Heart Full of Sky is the seventh studio album from rock artists Mostly Autumn released in 2006. The limited edition double-CD version was only available via the band's official website, whereas the single-CD version is available as a general release. This is the first Mostly Autumn album to feature multi-instrumentalist Chris Johnson, and the first to feature Olivia Sparnenn as an official member. Also, it is the last album (until the 2017 release of Sight Of Day) to feature Angela Gordon, who left Mostly Autumn to look after her newborn baby, and Andrew Jennings, who left due to other commitments.
