Long Beach-based Joshy Soul knows that we, just like plants, need water to grow and time to bloom into who you become. “Garden” is about growth, whether you are firmly planted in the ground or not.

“I talk about finding your 'soil-mate,' because as with a 'soulmate,' a soil-mate is finding someone in your life who helps you grow,” Soul says. “Who sees your flaws, and thorns, and grows with you.” See Joshy Soul live at The Troubadour on August 19th .
