Project led by keyboardist Valerio Smordoni; debuted with the 2013 album You Have A Chance and released the Kite EP in 2015. The project began as a solo act and later expanded with additional musicians.

Reviews name Valerio Smordoni as the main mind and keyboardist. Additional musicians mentioned include guitarist Manolo D'Antonio, bassist Marco Avallone, and external flute player Carlo Enrico Macalli; strings (violin, cello) are credited to external musicians. The sound is described as a blend of modern indie-folk and vintage 1970s progressive rock, with use of Hammond, Mellotron, harmonium and Minimoog; the band received web attention including visibility on Progarchives.

Two reviews (2013 album You Have A Chance and 2015 EP Kite) describe Camelias Garden as a project blending modern indie-folk and vintage 1970s progressive rock. Reviews praise keyboard textures (Hammond, Mellotron, Minimoog), acoustic foundations, and successful fusion moments, while noting room for further development.

For:Listeners who enjoy indie-folk with progressive-rock/vintage keyboard influences; prog and acoustic-fusion fans.

 The style of this band, of which this debut is a clear example, is perfectly balanced between modern indie folk and the vintage sounds of old '70s progressive music.

 It is probably the track on which the band should reflect and use as a guinea pig for the future, it is a perfect coexistence (albeit not simultaneous) between two quite opposite styles, yet the evolution of the track sounds perfectly natural!
