Hidden Herd Presents:WINTER GARDENS Shifting fluidly between shimmering shoegaze and propulsive intensity, Winter Gardens blend the hazy textures of dream-pop with the urgency and drive of post-punk, balancing moments of introspection with bursts of raw energy. Layers of reverb-soaked guitars, melodic basslines and driving percussion intertwine to create a sound that feels both expansive and immediate. Since their inception, Winter Gardens have shared stages with Echo & the Bunnymen, Gary Numan, Modern English, Piroshka, Pale Blue Eyes and many more. The band have performed at Left of the Dial in Rotterdam, Supersonic Club in Paris and Rockaway Beach, and recently played three shows in New York as part of The New Colossus Festival. They also delivered a standout set at Brighton’s Great Escape Festival this year, performing to a packed Concorde 2. Their latest EP, ‘Uncomfortable/Unlovable’, was released last year to widespread praise from BBC Radio 1, BBC Music Introducing, Radio X, KEXP, Louder Than War, CLUNK and more, including a recent BBC Introducing Live Lounge session. Now returning with the majestic ‘Adored’ and the ethereal follow-up ‘Fragile Boy’, Winter Gardens continue to expand their sonic world, pushing their sound into exciting new territory. + Opal Mag + Lucy Darke + Tears At The Table

band · post-punk · brighton, uk
A brighton post-punk three-piece who put their politics up front: anti-fascist, anti-racist, anti-violence and pro-creative. They have played the city's grassroots rooms, including support at the hope & ruin, and turn up here on a four-band pipeline bill.
