“Garden Vibes” takes us into the garden where edible delights and serenity grow. “Garden Vibes” was written by Corrie M. Dunn on a sunny summer day in her backyard garden.
Corrie and Mary Gospe share a love of growing organic vegetables, herbs, and fruits. So, it isn’t surprising that when they needed to name their band, they each independently came up with “The Song Gardeners” … and with that, The Song Gardeners were born.
“Garden Vibes” begins with harmonious a cappella singing from Corrie and Mary as they describe the garden through their senses:
In the sunlight, breathing sweet mother nature
Watching the seedlings thrive
Feeling dirt in my hands
Hear the bees humming
Digging these garden vibes
A mellow rock vibe continues with help from David Scheibner on guitars, James Butler on synths and percussion, Corrie Dunn on keys and lead vocals, and Mary Gospe on background vocals.
Each verse transports us into Corrie’s garden where we can feel her magical garden vibes enveloping us.
Waking up plants from their garden beds
Flower heads reach for the sky
Ripening fruit with beautiful blooms
Enjoying my harvest high
(and)
Grounding my feet in this rich dark soil
Connecting me to plant base
Vegetables, herbs, botanical gems
Grown in a loving landscape
The playful, percussive bridge builds on repeated garden visuals:
Roots pushing through the dirt
Pull a carrot up from the soil
Pick a berry, Pick a berry
I got a pocket full of green beans
“Garden Vibes” provides a delightful escape from everyday stress. It delivers garden therapy through radio waves and transports us into a garden with love from mother nature and the cycles of life. “Garden Vibes” reminds us of the harmony in the garden where the soil sings, the birds perch, the insects forage, and the vegetables grow plump in the sunlight.
Produced, mixed, and mastered by David Scheibner
