Capitol Records will release Bo Staloch’s The Garden, a stunning six-song showcase of visceral alt-folk and Americana. Family means everything to the Austin-born, Nashville-based singer-songwriter – it was their unconditional love and support that encouraged him to pour his soul into music while he was still in high school. On the EP’s profound title track, released today, Staloch pays it forward, declaring to the next generation, “When the sky falls down give the pieces to me / I’ll hold you like the moon til you fall asleep.” Listen to “The Garden” HERE.
Calling himself “the luckiest person in the world,” Bo Staloch explains the inspiration for his new single. “My family has always been the most important part of my life, and being surrounded by so much love and support, it's kind of impossible not to think of me being a parent someday. I actually think about my future kids a lot. It is a little weird that I'm 19 and I'm thinking about that, but I've seen how much effort my parents put into creating a space for me to flourish. So, I'm just like, ‘Whatever I'm doing right now, I'm really doing it for my kids.’”
He wrote “The Garden,” which serves as a mission statement for the EP, at his family home. To help him mold The Garden, Bo teamed with producer Andrew Wells (Phoebe Bridgers, Teddy Swims, Halsey), working out of his Laurel Canyon-facing home studio. That secluded setting, steeped in folk-rock history, lent a peaceful atmosphere to some emotionally stormy material. Staloch now calls it his “favorite place in the world.” It felt like home. For the closing track, “Oh God, Were You Ever,” he teamed up with producer Joshua Block (Jamestown Revival, Leon Bridges).
Staloch recently supported Houndmouth on their U.S. tour. In May, he’ll join Ashe on the road. Tickets are available here. Touring for his first time ever in 2024, Staloch sold out headline shows in London and Dublin and supported the likes of Wyatt Flores, Richy Mitch & TCM, John Vincent III and Hans Williams.
The Luna Collective observed, “2025 is looking to be the year of Bo Staloch…Full of powerful acoustic guitar and heartfelt lyricism, Bo Staloch’s music feels like it deserves to be listened to while sun-kissed and driving amongst the most cinematic of scenery…a special sonic blend of country, folk, and americana.” Atwood Magazine observed, “Bo Staloch basks in stomp-and-holler bliss…”
