Wind Rose is an Italian metal band. Its music style varied from progressive metal on early albums to folk metal on the latest, while also featuring symphonic power metal influence. The band’s lyrics are inspired by fantasy fiction, with especial emphasis on mythological dwarves.

The name “Wind Rose” was chosen by Claudio, Daniele and Federico, the founding members of the band. They started practicing together in 2007 as a Dream Theater, Symphony X and Blind Guardian cover band, playing in a lot of live shows.
