On a sunny summer’s day, “Watering the Garden” really hits the spot. Another in a long line of tunes that are impressively both sensual and a wonderful reminder of important things in life, Brad Stank has given life to a twinkling pop charmer in “Watering the Garden.” The Liverpool-based artist reminds listeners to take care of their mental garden and the beautiful flowers around them in a gentle, inviting baritone as the track flows over slipping and sliding guitar. Amongst the starry-eyed instrumentation, the track’s wellness mantra blooms with just the right amount of repetition to get stuck in as many minds as possible.
The song’s clip is a fuzzy and warm-toned portrait of Brad Stank bringing a garden of human flowers to life. Complete with elephant watering can, sunflower microphone, and animatedly twirling human flowers, the video, directed by Corey Rid, encapsulates a whimsical interpretation of the song’s main subject with a slightly psychedelic flair. It’s a daydream for the sunniest of days.
Wanna keep digging into the Brad Stank groove? We’d suggest “Take Me to the Crib” and “Flirting in Space” next or his full discography on Spotify. We’re praying his upcoming US tour will take a surprise swing through Portland.
