about

"Growing In The Ground" marks the return of singer/violinist Happy Axe, whose 2018 debut album Dream Punching became a cult favourite for fans of hypnotic ambient pop music.

Alongside her signature swooning vocals and lush strings comes a newfound clarity and confidence, with a production assist from fellow musical polymath and Spirit Level label-mate Braille Face.

Like a lot of Happy Axe's music, nature's magical power to inspire revelation is the inspiration behind the new track:

"My friend Anna and I went on a camping trip and arrived after dark. Having set up our tents we still wanted to go and explore even though the light had disappeared. As we walked down a bush track in the dark we decided to turn our torches off to see how it looked, and we realised we were standing between two walls of earth covered in a million glow worms.

This song is about the walk and also me discovering more about Anna as a friend and how people who at first seem tough reveal their softness after a while."
