Miranda Sex Garden was a band from London, England. Originally a trio of madrigal singers, their first album, Madra, was entirely a cappella, with the songs all based on traditional English verse.

Their sound became increasingly dark and sophisticated over the years. Around the time of their third album, Fairytales of Slavery, they said they wanted to create music that evoked a "seductive garden of earthly delights, full of color and chaos."[citation needed]
