Bando. - Bellflower (EP)

Prepare to feel good & hear some superb storytelling on Bando’s debut, a soulfully meditative masterpiece that you’ll be running back multiple times. Be it the neo-soul of the title track, the ceremonial championing of “Knock Knock,” the dinner date vibes of “Steak & Yams,” there’s something for everybody to head nod to, nothing but great vibes & introspection.

Bando is urging you to just “Be Cool” through all of life’s adversities & know that people are going to talk, good or bad. All you can do is continue being true to yourself & doing you, the reward will always be more significant, and soon it’ll all just be “Nostalgia” for you to reflect on. The fact that it’s no longer where you’re at, that you’re now where you always dreamt you would be that’ll bring you the most “Joy” out of life.

Even when he was the “Waterboy,” he was still determined to hit his goals & play his part in this game, an even bigger part but still maintained the drip that Bando is splashing all over the canvas. Never watered down, just stays walking on water ever so gracefully throughout this monumental debut of an EP, picking his own flowers to smell & water while he’s still here instead of waiting for anyone to give them to him; self-love has never sounded this beautiful.
