Ginger Trees

Let it grow

About Me

Ginger Trees' sound can be said to have many references to the multi-coloured rock of the 60's. Yet, in the process of writing and performing songs, the band's brightest focus is nowhere but Here and Now: in the society without and the emotions within.

There are four trees expressing themselves and growing together through the music that happens as a result; with branches stretching out to the unknown.
