GARRETT ANTHONY RICE LETS “SPARKING WATERFALLS” SPILL OUT

July 20, 2026 (Greystones, IE) // “Sparking Waterfalls” is the latest release from Garrett Anthony Rice’s forthcoming double album Equinox, a song built around the way ordinary moments can become permanent memories. The track was inspired by a story shared with Rice by a middle-aged friend, who recalled sneaking into his father’s garage at night in rural Ireland during the 1960s to watch him repair vehicles. Hidden away in the quiet of the evening, he watched the sparks from his father’s welding torch illuminate the darkness. Years later, after his father’s sudden passing at a young age, those sparks became something more: a fragment of time preserved, a reminder of a person who could no longer be reached.

The arrangement opens wide, drawing from a palette that nods gently toward modern alt country while carrying the spaciousness that has become a defining part of Rice’s work. There is a patient quality to the song, one that allows melodies and phrases to unfold naturally rather than rushing toward a conclusion. Much like the memory at its centre, “Sparking Waterfalls” is less concerned with arriving somewhere quickly than with remaining inside a moment long enough to understand its meaning.
