Montreal singer/songwriter Patrick Watson's new album, Adventures In Your Own Backyard, was released today via Domino (Secret City released it in Canada on April 16th), and from the album we have "Into Giants" to share. It's a lovely tune that starts with gentle acoustic guitar and dashes of piano before sprouting into something rather sprawling. It's a song about the infinite possibilities love can provide, capturing both the beauty, depth, and magnitude of love's character. And with the entrance of some triumphant horns in its final chapter, everything sounds all the more wondrous.
Patrick Watson - "Into Giants"
If you like your music videos to have some adventure, check out the one for "Into Giants" below. Much like the song, the video blossoms into something else. Watson winds up looking a bit like Humphrey Bogart in "Casablanca," which, all things considered, seems rather fitting.
Watson kicks off a short run of dates tomorrow where he'll be opening for Andrew Bird. He and his band will be making a stop here in Baltimore next week on Wednesday, May 9th (their last date with Bird).
