An impactful new single from Cole Guerra, “Good Gardener” dazzles in its array of spaciously twinkling keys and expansive vocal swells. “I’m stuck in a movie without a speaking part,” Guerra’s vocals lament, navigating into murky keys that throb with intrigue as solemn vocal haunts emerge. References to an eroding “shelter,” continues the sense of foreboding, invigorating as the vocals gain momentum in their melodic tone.
“Good Gardener” is a thorough success from Guerra, who describes the track as “about the growing of doubt and disconnection, and how that spikes feelings of contempt and helplessness.” “Good Gardener” represents the first single from an upcoming LP, out in 2025.
