Ivy Gardens new video for title track from upcoming album »Goon« is a belligerently, grungy good time + Canadian Tour (ON, QC, NB, NS, PEI)
Born on a quiet street named Ivy Gardens Crescent, Ivy Gardens emerged from humble beginnings with an unwavering passion for creating music that resonates with raw energy and volume. Originally formed under a different name, the band, hailing from Niagara, Ontario, Canada, underwent a transformative journey. In 2020, fueled by their collective experiences as young musicians, Ivy Gardens took root and blossomed into a force to be reckoned with. With an EP already under their belts, they are gearing up to release their new album »Goon« on April 19. Ahead of this release, they are premiering the title track, which they comment on:
“»Goon« is a song that was written with the intention of being both rhythmically intricate, but ultimately danceable. Where the verses are filled with screaming lyrics from the point of view of a struggling addict, the chorus takes a more melodic approach, as the person in question experiences the ecstasy that comes with getting their fix. This song is filled with sonic surprises, and we hope it serves as a sweet release for all those “goons” out there.”

To support this album, Ivy Gardens will be embarking on a tour through Eastern Canada (dates listed below) and each stop promises to be a rip-roaring good time. One of their gigs is typically 30 to 40 unbroken minutes of high-energy, heavy-hitting music at a crushing volume. Beaten-to-hell drums, throbbing bass synth, searing organ, and a liquid wall of guitar sludge. One song flows immediately into the next.
Ivy Gardens wastes no time, gets the audience involved, and provides an immersive, belligerent, good time full of sweat, sludge, and grunge. They are recommended for fans of Truckfighters, Queens Of The Stone Age, and Nirvana.

»Goon« is out April 19th, 2024, and available for album pre-order at ivygardens.bandcamp.com.
