A no nonsense duo coming from NYC, Gardenia’s ‘2nd Grade’ is straight forward, punchy rock that’s made to be enjoyed and not over thought.
Self described as “one guitar, one drum, one mic, no b.s”, Gardenia’s music takes influence from underground NYC rock, raw and passionate at its core, while equally alluring with its straight forward style.
‘2nd Grade’ depicts love from the earliest days to current, carrying the charm of childhood freedom with the passion of mature romanticism. The one guitar is consistently being slayed with choppy riffs while the one drum is mercilessly beaten within an inch of its life. Similar to Radkey or Parquet Courts, Gardenia are a refreshing hit of pure rock ‘n’ roll.
