I Need to Start a Garden, Mama Bird Recording Co

Gosh, has it really been 2 years since this album came out? I tried to start a garden back when everyone else was doing it during Spring lockdown (shocker: the garden came out horribly and was attacked viciously by deer, Mr. Hedgehog, Mrs. Badger, and just a lot of insects). I digress. Haley Heynderickx is from Portland, Oregon. I Need to Start a Garden, produced by Heynderickx and Zak Kimble, was the artist's debut album. It was recorded "while Heynderickx balanced a job at a bakery and school, 'playing a ton of shows [and] being in weird relationships'; due to various obstacles in the recording process, the album ultimately took three attempts to complete." Heynderickx's influences include folk music of the 60s and 70s and her fellow Portland musicians.
