Haley Heynderickx announces second album, Seed of a Seed
Portland, Oregon-based songwriter Haley Heynderickx has announced her forthcoming album, Seed of a Seed, and shared the album's second single, "Foxglove".
Speaking about “Foxglove”, Heynderickx says: “‘Foxglove’ is my daydream tune craving a slower and simpler pace of life. Sometimes it all feels so far away - living in a city being so removed from a life entwined with nature.”
Announcing the album and single via her Instagram page, she wrote: "I wanted to ask: how do we return to lives immersed in nature, when most of us live in the city? The irony is not lost on me, to write from a place of deep silence and dark greenery of the pnw and then spend most my life on the road. I hope to bridge these worlds someday."
Seed of a Seed explores how distant we can feel from nature and ourselves in a world of technology, overconsumption, and consumerism. This album doesn’t give you easy answers. Heynderickx’s journey is not a linear one. A theme that persists across both of her albums is that Heynderickx is still building herself. She is still growing and changing, and her songs invite us to notice that in ourselves as well. She admits, "the irony is I'll still be asking these questions; I'm not on the other side of it."
Seed of a Seed follows her 2018 debut record, I Need to Start a Garden.
Seed of a Seed will be released digitally on 1 November, and physically on 6 December via Mama Bird Recording Co.
