The mixed composition of Garnet Crow and Nakamura's deep vocals set the group apart from its contemporaries. Each individual member has also seen industry success: Nakamura and Azuki often share the limelight for Garnet Crow, but Okamoto has achieved a solo career and Furui is a sought-after music arranger – one of the highest paid in Japan.
On March 30, 2013, the band announced their disbandment, with their final concert scheduled to be held on June 9, 2013. On June 9, 2013, they announced that they would break up during the final concert.
On March 29, 2020, on the day of debut anniversary was launched on their official website a special 20th anniversary project. According to the Furui, it would not be a band reunion.
