Heavy Metal
Bristol, England, United Kingdom
With a hard rock/metal crossover sound, Gethsemane Rose made a big impact that landed them main-stage festival appearances. Memorable riffs and creative bass guitar lines ensured songs that remain memorable to this day.
The final line-up of Gethsemane Rose featured Andy Mears, Ben Mears, Matt Sims, and Kev Bonett, and this was the band that began to find a new direction that resulted in the formation of M-Ocean and then Bushbaby. Bonett was previously in No Big Deal and Matt Sims was in Mudheads Monkey.
