Patti and Len Brown started Back 2 Eden in 2020 during the pandemic. Everything was shut down and there was nothing to do, so they decided to start writing songs and playing music. In 2021 Back 2 Eden added three more musicians, all of whom are very talented and give the band an amazing full sound. Each member adds their own parts to Back 2 Eden original songs and helps bring the covers to life. In 2023 they added their sixth member of the band, singer and song writer Rachel Ralston.
Currently, Back 2 Eden plays at wineries, breweries, festivals, amphitheaters, restaurant, special events, and privet parties.. Len and Patti also play at open mic nights and smaller venues. If you want to find out more click Contact at the top of the page. We'd love to hear from you.
