About BrisMel Expertise I will answer almost any Savage Garden question. I know informatin on the past and present backup band members, unreleased tracks, etc. The only ones I won`t answer are ones about their personal lives. It`s none of my business who they`re currently dating or what their sexual preferences are. Sorry folks.
Experience I have been a fan of Savage Garden since I first heard I Want You in 1997. Since then I've scoured the net for information on anything I could get my hands on. I've seen a number of TV performances and interviews from all over the world and have read quite a few articles and transcripts (also from all over the world). I have been to 3 Savage Garden concerts (I got to meet Ben Carey, SG's former backup guitarist, at the one).

Question I have a few Questions about Savage Garden. When did the group start? How many cd's and song do they have out? What are the songs? what are the titles of the cd's? Where did the group start? Did the group break up? And if so why did they?
Thank you for your help if u could give me any other info about thiem i would be great.

Answer Hello Elizabeth,
Daniel put an ad in the paper for a singer and in '94, Darren was chosen to join Daniel's current band, Red Edge, a cover band. Shortly afterwards, they decided to cut away and start their own band. Their first album was released in '97. They only released two albums because they split up in 2001. There isn't any real reason besides they both had grown and wanted to go onto different things. Below is a list of their two albums, the songs on the albums, and b-sides (any songs recorded by Darren and/or Daniel during this time not a SG song isn't listed):
