25 Miles to Kissimmee

Fools Garden

Polished mid-tempo pop rock with a heavy heart. Lush harmonies and piano-driven melodies that feel like a long drive through a rainy landscape.

Find on Amazon

It's the perfect soundtrack for when you're feeling a little bit sad but still want a melody you can hum along to.

A mature, rain-soaked reflection on life and isolation that balances pop catchiness with a deep, wistful heart.

Moments Worth Waiting For
The way the 'sha lah lah' harmonies in 'Glory' create a jarring contrast against the imagery of cold rain slapping a face.
The transition from the electronic-tinged 'Tears Run Dry' into the more traditional melodic pop of 'Dreaming'.
The stripped-back, vulnerable opening of 'Closer' before the rhythmic pulse of the life-affirming chorus kicks in.
