Cloves per bulb: 4-6
This cultivar was named after Canadian garlic grower Al Music, who brought it from Italy in the 1980s. High-yielding, robust plants produce very large bulbs with exceptional cold tolerance. Skins are white with a pink blush and contain 4–6 big, easy-to-peel cloves wrapped in bronze to pink-striped wrappers. Raw flavor has quite a bit of heat, but Cook's Illustrated also described it as "fragrant, floral, deep round garlic flavor, peppery, and sweet." Rich and sweet when baked. This best-selling garlic is known for its true garlic flavor and large yields, which is music to any garlic lover's ears. Stores approximately 9 months.
Due to state restrictions, we cannot ship garlic to Idaho, Hawaii, and the following counties in Washington—Adams, Benton, Franklin, Grant, and Klickitat (including cities such as Othello, Pasco, Moses Lake, Kennewick, and Richland). Please do not order garlic if you live in one of these locations.
We source our garlic from local farms, where passionate farmers hand-harvest each bulb. This commitment not only supports our community but also ensures top-notch quality and flavor in every product.

Music is a hardneck known to produce bulbs even in some warmer locations - Kevin grows it at the Epic Homestead! At the same time, it handles colder climates like a champion, making it a good candidate for growers nationwide. It has great spice to it when raw but becomes very complex and delicious when cooked - try this as a garlic confit! An excellent storage garlic that’s well worth the time spent growing it.

The garlic and other things I’ve purchased have all been great. I haven’t planted garlic before and wasn’t sure what to expect. I followed the directions and they’ve sprouted really well. Can’t wait for harvest!

Zone 7b, Fall 2023 to Summer 2024 was my first time growing garlic and I had massive success with the music garlic from BI. Not all the bulbs ended up as massive as the one in the photo, but all sprouted and I only had two casualties (due to a pesky squirrel). I planted in mid October and mulched with a layer of wood chips, harvested the last week of June and cured for a little over three weeks.

Garlic showed up on time to be planted. Had nice big bulbs! I planted them after watching the Epic Garlic planting with Kevin (glad Eric did not show) and Jacque. All the bulbs were planted into a large, tall Birdies bed from Epic Garding of course. All the bulbs did sprout. I covered them with straw and watched the snow cover them. Excited to see how big they will get and tasted.
