Garden Centre are a band that encompass the childish wonder of our every day. On their self-titled debut they deconstructed the thoughts and feelings of a friendship group forged in the fires of forgotten spaces. In 2018’s follow up ‘ Monster Energy’ they tackled energy drink consumption and semi-rural exploration. Now, on their new album ‘A Moon For Digging’, they’ve reaffirmed their ability to look at the world a little differently. Conveying simple, starry-eyed narratives with a tentative sense of optimism, Garden Centre’s sweet, playground melodies will urge you to look up from your phone and notice the little things; the hidden things. Written over the last three years, this is the first Garden Centre album to be recorded with a full band (with songwriter Max Levy backed up by members of Porridge Radio). The collaboration has pushed Levy’s unconventional approach to songwriting into focus. While there’s plenty of pop hooks and tender lyricism, the structures show that Garden Centre can be both sparse and sporadic. It’s this unexpected, modest attitude that highlight the ethos of the band – making songs for the sake of art, making art so you can make sense of the world and making that art with your friends, so you can make sense of the world, together. “As it came together I recognised a unifying obsession in the lyrics: holes.” Levy explains. “I have always been fascinated with the idea of finding something underneath the ground. Some things of great potency exist in hidden spaces, shining unseen for many years. I am always drawn towards writing about a sort of childish optimistic archaeology. I suppose we don’t just dig holes for treasure. We dig holes to put people in when they are dead, we dig holes to hide in, to put our secrets in and we dig holes we can’t get out of by doing things we regret. When writing songs I tend to consider digging as a central and important action that cannot be avoided. I tend to largely think optimistically about digging holes. ‘A Moon For Digging’ is not thematically uniform, but I think it shines into a number of interconnected pits.” Whether it’s songs about watching TV or doing wheelies on your bike, ‘A Moon For Digging’ will make you excited about the immediate world around you. It’ll make you psyched to go to the supermarket or drink beers with your friends. It will make you remember the joke you heard weeks ago as you walk to work. It will provide an innocent light on the days that feel a little darker. Having built up a strong following in the DIY scene, ‘A Moon For Digging’ will see Garden Centre soar to new (possibly intergalactic) heights. “ the balancing of the heartfelt and the daft, the beautiful and the noisy, the sublime and the ridiculous.” – For The Rabbits “ a lo-fi pleasure” – Too many Blogs – FOR FANS OF Clap Your Hands And Say Yeah, Daniel Johnston, Neutral Milk Hotel, lo fi, twee, indie pop, indie folk.
