Collin Keller is back with a track that feels both sun-soaked and storm-charged. “Weed in the Garden” takes the shimmer of surf pop and threads it through with political grit, creating a protest anthem that’s as catchy as it is defiant. From the first jangly chords, you can almost smell the salt in the air — and the tension in the breeze.
The song’s metaphor is brilliantly simple: weeds grow where they’re not wanted, thriving against all odds. Keller leans into this imagery to confront corruption and greed, urging listeners to dig in deeper and hold their ground. It’s protest music dressed in a Hawaiian shirt, refusing to be ignored.
What makes the track stick is its balance of joy and urgency. Think John Mayer’s storytelling with a sharper edge, or Jack Garratt’s emotional punch with a psychedelic wash. It’s rare to find a protest song you can dance to, but Keller just pulled it off.
