Theres a lively, clean strum that introduces Watercress', bringing a welcoming burst of hope. It marks a refreshing shift from the last time we checked in with S. Carey, who was feeling heavy-hearted on 2022s Break Me Open full of sorrow and reflection after losing a big love. Now, Watercress starts us off with a joyful, hopeful tone. Its true that watercress only grows in clear, shallow waters, and for Sean Carey, those are the very places he naturally returns to to fish, reflect, and grow. Seasons have gone by, and hes spent time healing in the water, flowing and still. His pieces have been gathered and beautifully reassembled. Of course, a hint of wistfulness always lingers in S. Careys music, but here, its the kind of wistfulness you feel on a bright, crisp October morning, full of promise and renewal.
