"Such a fine song! Comes up classy and vibey, dreamy, laidback and with much catchines in the vocals!”
Glow Pop Brazil said....
“Everything sounds ethereal, like walking alone through empty streets illuminated only by cold lights and the memory of something already lost. There is a melancholic beauty in every detail.”
TrackTally UK said....
“Just gave your track a listen and wow! It’s an absolute breath of fresh air. The vibe, the sound, the energy is exactly the kind of wave we love to ride”
Edgar Allan Poets said....
“I love the voice and nostalgic vibes of this song, another great tune after Overlord”
About
Forgotten Garden are an Indie Rock band (duo+guests) with dark/gothic post-punk tendencies. Occasionally they also wander from the path of post-punk righteousness into more acoustic territory. The haunting vocals are provided by Inês whilst Danny plays most of the instruments. Danny lives in the north of Scotland whilst Inês lives in Portugal. They started working together in 2019.
The Broken Pieces EP that dropped in September 2020 was Forgotten Garden's first release. It contains four tracks based around the theme of a relationship breakdown.
On July 23rd 2021 Screamlite Records released a new single by Forgotten Garden entitled “Jessica”. This is a song about the consequences of domestic trauma. It was paired with “Broken Pieces” (Natural Mix) - a re-mix that previously only had very limited availability.
On 6th December 2021 we released the "Christmas Time" single. "Christmas Time" is an alternative, dark acoustic track about how sad memories can come back to haunt us at Christmas.
Since then we have released four more singles: Bad Guy, Jessica (Acoustic) Memoriam and Francesca.
On 29th March 2024 we released our second EP "In Memoriam". The four songs on "In Memoriam" are based around the themes of passing, loss and grief. The Indie Grid called the EP "a thing of fragile and transient beauty"
The music of Forgotten Garden is mostly inspired by post-punk bands such as The Cure and Joy Division and Scottish folk music. Inês's vocals are influenced by some of her favourite artists like Florence Welch, Lana Del Rey, Chelsea Wolfe, Weyes Blood, Kelsey Lu and Warpaint.
