Garden are a prog/symphonic/power metal sort of band featuring violin, cello, sax, flute & clarinet alongside the typical prog metal setup up guitars, drums, keys and vocals.

The music is somewhere along the lines of bands like Kamelot, Dream Theater & Symphony X but with a slightly more evident unfluence from classic bands such as Yes & Jethro Tull, and a greater emphasis on the use of authentic instruments than comparable metal acts.

We've just released our first self-recorded EP, which can be heard at facebook or bandcamp. Have a listen, a "like" and a share if you feel so inclined, cheers!

We just uploaded a sampler for our upcoming EP containing excerpts from each of the tracks, have a listen and do share it if you like what you hear. It's the closest thing we'll have to a single to promote the EP prior to its release so any assistance is greatly appreciated!

Cheers
