Lucy Wise - Broadbeans [Official Music Video]

Broadbeans is about singer-songwriter Lucy Wise’s move from Melbourne to regional Victoria, Australia. It describes searching for connection in a new place, missing community, and shelling hundreds of broad beans. Although the song was written pre-pandemic, it highlights realities many people have faced during lockdown: isolation, working from home, and living with a harsh inner critic. The song forms part of a new album which Lucy is releasing one at a time, culminating in a full album release in 2022. Depicting contrasts between Australian rural and urban living, Broadbeans also reflects Lucy's love of American folk music, featuring driving cello rhythms from Monique Clare, banjo grooves from Evan Davies, and syncopated bass lines from Dan Witton.
