'These Troubles' Live
ARTIST BIO (cont.)
Garrett's last release, If I Don't See You for a While features a raw, unbridled rock & roll sound that marks a departure from his 2021 release Nobody's Singing Along.
The batch of four songs still manages to cover a wide array of subject matter, from reminiscing the feelings of young love on "Southern Summer," to the painfully self-aware "All the Good Times," a cautionary tale of why Evan Williams & Taco Bell NEVER mix well.
With audible influences ranging from singer-songwriters like Ruston Kelly & Ryan Adams, to moments of near-pop punk/alternative rock in the vain of Jawbreaker & The Hold Steady, the EP is certified Y'allternative gold.
Below is a live clip of the song "Spare Me the Trouble," a track calling equal influence to Alice In Chains & Colter Wall:
Spare Me the Trouple - Live in Atlanta
UP-NEXT
The next upcoming release for Garrett is a full length album to be recorded at the Back Room studios in Savannah, Georgia in the Spring of 2025.
One of the new tracks was teased when the demo was released - "King of Self Sabotage" speaks for itself, & tells a true-story on why trying to out-drink the singer of your favorite band is a bad idea.
"I've gotten fall down drunk in front of my idols
Trying to prove I could live the lifestyle
& earn myself an opening-slot on their next tour"
