London-based band, Gardening (formerly known as Mirror Shot) released a new single, “Second Sight” on Label Fandango.
The four-piece band Gardening, Niall Rush (vocals, guitars), Adam Smith (guitars, vocals), Olivia Horrox (drums, percussion), Mikey Burton (bass, vocals), changed their name from Mirror Shot after releasing their previous single, Taste Invader, to avoid getting regularly confused with another new band with almost the same name.
Recorded on all-analogue equipment in an ancient studio in North East London, new single, ‘Second Sight’ is a galloping psychedelic sprint, opening in a fuzzy rush of riffs and mounting energy. With lyrics “ironically recasting anxiety and pessimism as the world’s shittiest superpowers”, according to songwriter Niall Rush, “it was a live staple, back in the good ol’ days of playing gigs – great for inflicting a bit of hearing damage on our victims in the crowd”.
