Following the release of their first single “No Pushover” earlier this year, HousePlants have returned with “Every Flower is a Field”, the latest sample of their upcoming album.
You’re probably aware of HousePlants by now, the exciting full-fledged creative vision of two of Ireland’s most respected artists – Bell X1 frontman Paul Noonan, and innovative atmospheric producer Daithí.
Following their 2021 Choice Prize nominated album Dry Goods, and 2022 EP Seaglass, the duo return, suited and booted, with a new album coming later this year.
Watch the video for “Every Flower is a Field” below.
Speaking of their new single, singer Paul said, “Lyrically, the song tries to speak to how the unknowing blank canvas of early childhood gives way to the awkward, burdened teenage bit. My own children are 12 and 14 now, and there is much eye-rolling when we talk about the cuter times…
“There’s also still something really arresting about seeing how a child’s mannerism or expression can be exactly like one of your own parent’s moves, a genetic torch burning on.”
In support of their upcoming album, HousePlants are heading on tour with the below dates sure to be snapped up in no time.
