About GARZI
Chris Garzon (aka GARZI), always showed an interest in performing. From Miami, FL, he was a theater kid and initially wanted to pursue an acting career. As fate would have it, he formed his first band, The 3 Seas. His music was inspired by rock, punk, and metal sounds. After high school, GARZI found himself at the University of Florida. However, he just did not love the college lifestyle and moved back home. Timing could not have been more perfect for GARZI. Miami was aching for new hip-hop, rock artists, and GARZI fit the bill. GARZI had the perfect opportunities to meet the right people and really start to focus on his music. His first song “Bury Me in Designer” featuring ‘Til Death, was released in October 2017. GARZI quit his day job and decided to put all of his attention and focus into pursuing his music career. The grind never stopped from GARZI as he kept releasing songs adn his breakout song was “Demonstrate”. This song alone has 7 million streams on SoundCloud!
GARZI has worked closely with well-known music industry veterans such as Travis Barker and John Feldman. This emo/punk artist is the newest artist to sign with Outlast Records in partnership with 333 Wreckords. GARZI’s latest single is a collaboration with Kellin Quinn of Sleeping with Sirens. How did this collaboration come to be you might be wondering? Well, GARZI said than “Reaching out to Kellin was actually a lot easier than you’d think. I followed him on Instagram and saw he followed me back (fanboy moment) and I sent him a DM saying we should work and him being the cool guy he is, he was super down! I wanted this track to be really high energy and pack an emo punch and I think we accomplished that, so I’m happy. The song captures that moment in people’s lives where they’d rather have fun over anything else, especially having genuine connections/relationships.”
“MESS”
This track was clearly inspired by a failed relationship. Comparing said relationship to a mess shares that relatable quality with the audience. Most people can relate to a past relationship being somewhat of a mess. Whether it was a toxic relationship, a messy break-up, or something else, everyone has that “MESS” of a past relationship. This song exemplifies GARZI’s musical talents. The infectious guitar riffs and drum beat throughout, give the song that emo/punk vibe everyone needs! Both artists really shine in the song! The song just makes you want to jump up and down to it and scream it at the top of your lungs. The guitar is my favorite part and the lyrics just remind me of my own experiences with failed relationships. This song will definitely be added to my playlist and it should be added to yours as well. “Mess” featuring Kellin Quinn is available on all DSPs!
