The Creatures in the Garden of Lady Walton is an album by Clogs, released in March 2010. This is their first non-instrumental album, featuring several guest singers, including Shara Worden, singer and songwriter of the indie rock band My Brightest Diamond, Matt Berninger, lead singer of Clogs' sister band the National and Sufjan Stevens, a prominent indie folk singer/songwriter.[6]
The name of the album is a reference to La Mortella, a private garden on the Italian island of Ischia created by Lady Susana Walton, wife of composer William Walton.[7]
