Dunes is the second studio album by American rock band Gardens & Villa. Produced by Tim Goldsworthy it was released on February 4, 2014, on Secretly Canadian.
The band recorded the album at Key Club in Benton Harbor, Michigan. The group spent a month in the space working on the record, only leaving five times throughout the process. The album title was inspired by one of these ventures out of the studio to Michigan's sand and snow dunes.
