It’s Not Dying But Flowering by Gavin Wade

Gavin Wade just released It’s Not Dying It’s Flowering, check it out here.

“The title of the song comes from one of the three verses that get repeated as a chorus moment throughout the song:

it’s not dying
it’s flowering
the snake bark bamboo

Although it is actually written about one of the bamboos in my garden, which is flowering and so will then die, but is not dead yet, it felt to me that I’m talking about other things, bigger things, whole systems of society that we are caught up in. A moment that is so close to death and yet so beautiful and is the crescendo of a life. It’s a beautiful bamboo.

Thank you for listening!” – Gavin Wade
