Hidden Herd Presents

WINTER GARDENS

With the accompaniment of synths, pianos, pads and the celestial harmonising vocals of Ananda Howard and Jasmine Ardley, Winter Gardens take listeners on a journey through an eclectic array of dynamic and disparate sounds. Their music weaves a kaleidoscopic tapestry of ethereal shoegaze atmospheres, bound together by a pulsing post-punk attitude and a brooding gothic undercurrent, with lyrics that evoke a sense of cryptic intimacy. Since their inception, Winter Gardens have been championed consistently by Melita Dennett on BBC Music Introducing, appearing in the Live Lounge, and have also received airplay on BBC Radio 1 from Gemma Bradley. Live, they have secured support slots alongside Echo & The Bunnymen, Gary Numan, Modern English, Piroshka, Pale Blue Eyes and many more. Emerging with a bold and confident new lineup in 2024, they kicked off that year with an appearance at Rockaway Beach alongside acts such as OMD, Self Esteem and Peter Hook & The Light, before performing at Left of the Dial in Rotterdam and Supersonic Club in Paris. This year, they unveiled their new mini-album ‘Uncomfortable/Unlovable’ via austerity records – which was co-produced by Luke Marsden and backed by Dork and Clash – and sold out the release show at The Prince Albert.
