Lime Garden at The Velveeta Room
Lime Garden are a four-piece band from Brighton (UK) jumping over genre boundaries to create a sound that is uplifting yet somehow laid-back. They achieve this neat trick by harnessing catchy melodies and earworm hooks into an almost nonchalant net of lo-fi sounds, which is then sprinkled with a dry-wit to bring their world to life.
Previous singles ‘Sick & Tired’, ‘Pulp’ - which premiered via The FADER - ‘Clockwork’ and ‘Bitter’ have all been met with widespread critical acclaim which includes the likes of CLASH, The Sunday Times, Loud & Quiet, The Line Of Best Fit, online tastemaker Anthony Fantano, and more. Lime Garden have also been heavily supported by BBC Radio 1’s Jack Saunders in his Future Artists slot and earlier this year were endorsed by Paramore’s Hayley Williams on her special ‘Everything Is Emo’ show. They’ve also seen support from Lauren Laverne and Tom Robinson at BBC Radio 6 Music, and Apple Music 1’s Matt Wilkinson.
Lime Garden have toured with the likes of Idles, Sunflower Bean, Katy J Pearson, Yard Act and were also nominated for the prestigious ANCHOR award at the 2022 Reeperbahn festival.
