====== Gethsemane Rose ======

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]].
