Hey there! My name is G.A.R.Y, I produce and write Spongebob Squarepants inspired rap and hip-hop music. I currently have four albums on Spotify and am in production on my fifth. I love music, and I have beats I make that may not be perfect for my own songs, but may be for someone else's.
Tell me about your history? How did you get where you are now?
I started by playing music in grade school, played clarinet all through high school and picked up guitar at age 15. I played live shows in the Buffalo area playing both original songs and covers, and then went to study vocal performance in college for two years before dropping out. After taking a decade long hiatus from music, I decided to start trying to make my own beats on GarageBand, and eventually was able to upload my music to Spotify, Apple Music and Soundcloud.
Have you performed live in front of an audience? Any special memories?
Yes, I remember playing once at a local coffee shop in front of my father for the first time. First time I had seen him in almost 6 years. Most terrifying and ultimately most important performance of my life.
Your musical influences
Doja Cat, Megan Thee Stallion, French Montana, Dr. Dre, Snoop Dogg, Nas
What equipment do you use?
Soundtrap, a standard USB mic, and a KORG midi keyboard.
