Artist description Irene?s Garden?s music is a dynamic, expressive synthesis of swing, punk, new wave, pop, reggae and R&B delivered with high energy focus and finesse. Two female vocalists with complimentary styles ranging from edgy punk to belting blues front the band. The tunes are punctuated throughout with masterful guitar improvisations and lyrical Celtic-inspired violin solos. Gutsy bass guitar riffs, rich synth textures, and exciting trap kit artistry round out the sound. Various observers have described the music as the "B52?s on acid" and "Dave Mathews meets Blondie"

Artist History Irene?s Garden is a band that has continued to evolve over the past 16 years. Five of the band?s members played with The Stellectrics (1983 ? 1994), which performed all over the Midwest, released one CD and achieved widespread popularity as a jamming, all original dance experience. Irene?s Garden picked up where The Stellectrics left off, adding fresh and prodigious bass, lead guitar and electric violin talents, and has continued to shape their sound by writing innovative material, incorporating novel sonic textures and developing a tight, up-tempo energy
