Все началось в Петрозаводске, когда два одноклассника решили начать творческую деятельность в рамках тяжелой команды. Стиль формировался под влиянием различных зарубежных групп, таких как In Flames, Dark Tranquility. Вскоре начались проблемы с составом, сразу стало ясно для кого музыка просто развлечение, а для кого – часть жизни.
Очень долго продолжались поиска гитариста, в силу расхождений в музыкальных предпочтениях. В конце концов, почти после года поиска и безуспешных попыток сыграться, Ardent нашли нужного человека.
На этом проблемы с составом не закончились. Осенью 2007 года из группы уходит барабанщик, один из основателей команды. Это было большим ударом, так как группа уже наработала материал, постоянные репетиции положительно влияли на уровень каждого из участников. Около 2-х месяцев заняли поиска ударника, и вот, в середине осени 2007-го, сформировался окончательный состав группы. Read more on Last.fm.

Ardent is a mixture of soaring guitar lines, catchy lyrics and powerful progressions creating a style that they have only been able to pin down to something called “rock & roll”. They began playing years ago in their former hometown of Redding, California. As the years went by with many shows and festivals, their "sound" was develp[ed and became such an amazing mix of tone and creativity. That sound took them to the studio with Jeremy Edwardson of The Myraid. He recorded and produced the EP titled “Sounds”. With his help and many others, they have been able to share the stage with many amazing bands such as; Angels & Airwaves (Interscope Records), Number One Gun (Tooth and Nail Records), Jonathan Jones of "We Shot The Moon"(The Militia Group), The Myriad (Koch Records), Transistor Radio (Up at Night Records), The Higher (Epitaph Records) and many more. They have now relocated to Boise, Idaho. Life tends to set people in places for reasons, and they feel that being here is one of those times, especially with the growing fan base in Boise to add to their California base.
They are currently working on a full-length.
“Ardent” means to burn, or be passionate, and that’s what we are. So be on the lookout this year as Ardent is passionately winning the hearts of many here an afar Read more on Last.fm. User-contributed text is available under the Creative Commons By-SA License; additional terms may apply.
