Garland of Hours formed in 2000 when Amy Domingues (Telegraph Melts, Threnody Ensemble, Allscars, Tsunami, Edith Frost, Mary Timony) began fleshing out her keyboard and cello-based songs with the help of Brendan Canty (Fugazi) and Jerry Busher (Allscars, French Toast). The self-titled debut appeared in 2003 followed by an appearance in the DC music documentary Burn to Shine as well as tours with Mary Timony and Brandon Butler (ex-Canyon). Garland of Hours has featured additional personnel over the years including Brandon Butler on drums and Devin Ocampo (Medications) on drums and guitar. Amy Domingues writes music for soundtracks and film and also currently plays with Benjy Ferree and Threnody Ensemble.

WASHINGTONPOST.COM MAY 2007---"Amy Domingues has played cello on albums by many of D.C.'s biggest names -- Fugazi, Ted Leo and Bob Mould, just to name a few. On "The Soundest Serum," she proves she's no mere sidewoman, though, as she leads her band through a strong set nine-song set. The tracks range from the torchy, spooky murder ballad "Dear Henry" -- highlighted by the cutting guitar work of frequent collaborator Mary Timony -- to the bouncy, piano-driven "Brick Eyes" to the solo-cello showcase of album closer "Difficult Run." There's certainly a medieval feel to the proceedings, but this isn't Renaissance Faire fare. It's hip, seductive chamber pop done right."

WASHINGTON CITY PAPER DEC 2006:::
"As far as retro-rock is concerned, contemporary bands have pretty much mined the past four decades to exhaustion. However, musicians with an affection for yore have found that there's a surprising amount of merit in reaching further back for your influences-even into a time beyond memory. As the leader of Garland of Hours, Amy Domingues doesn't quite reach as far back as bands like OM, whose work suggests the 13th century--Garland of Hours looks back only as far as the Renaissance. The group's modal melodies are equally haunting and hooky, using piano, cello, and Domingues' melancholy voice to evoke an eerie timelessness-as well as Baltimore's Lungfish."
