The Garden is an American experimental rock band from Orange County, California, formed in 2011 by twin brothers Wyatt and Fletcher Shears.
In 2015, the group released their second studio album Haha along with the lead single "All Smiles Over Here :)" to critical acclaim after being signed to Epitaph Records.
The brothers have toured across the US, Europe, United Kingdom, China, Japan, New Zealand, Australia, Canada, Mexico, and in 2019 and 2023, they appeared at Coachella.
[1][2][3] They began playing shows and soon, still signed to their previous band's label Burger Records, released their debut self titled EP in May 2012 on cassette,[4][5][6] followed by Everything Is Perfect in December.
[37] In June 2024, The Garden announced the release of their first single of the year titled "Filthy Rabbit Hole"[38] described as a West Coast lofi hardcore punk track from the '80s.
At some point Wyatt has stated he switched from bass to guitar, but most people didn't notice because of his playing style and use of low notes.
[47] The twins have cited influence from artists such as video game composer Manabu Namiki, rappers E-40 and Mykki Blanco, country singer Johnny Paycheck, and punk rock bands Minutemen and Big Boys.
