Garzi Unveils Brand New Single & Music Video "Drag"

Fresh from the vibrant crossroads of alternative rock and post-emo, Garzi has dropped his brand new single, "Drag" and it's accompanying music video, out now via Sumerian Records. Fans can stream the new track HERE and can watch the official music video below.

Speaking on his new track, Garzi shares

"This is a song that came very quickly to me and was such an important way for me to express my vulnerability."

Garzi's unique sound palette is a reflection of his diverse influences, drawing from the angst of punk and emo to the aggression of nu-metal and grunge, all while threading through the lyrical flow of rap. His journey from a Warped Tour devotee to a full-fledged artist is marked by his breakout hit 'Demonstrate', and collaborations with industry icons like John Feldmann, Travis Barker and Mephis May Fire's Matty Mullins.

About Garzi:

Garzi is an Alternative Rock artist who stands at the intersection's of Alt/Indie, Post Emo, Nü Metal, Grunge and Rap. His authentic gritty, angsty, yet soothing melodic voice soars over his array of stylistic tracks.

The Miami native was a self-described lover of Warped Tour and gravitated towards hard rock, punk and emo sounds like Melphis May Fire and Sleeping With Sirens. "It was a fitting soundtrack to feelings of isolation, of being an outsider during those teenage years especially as a POC punk"

In October 2017, he uploaded his first song and quit his day job the next day to pursue music full time. A slew of releases followed, culminating in his breakout, "Demonstrate" (with producers Nick Mira and Taz Taylor), which had popped off on SoundCloud and now has over 16.5 million streams on Spotify.

IN 2022 he released EP, ‘Careful What You Wish For’ which spawned tracks “Mess” (with Kellin Quinn of Sleeping With Sirens), “HELLO//GOODBYE” (produced by John Feldmann and Travis Barker) and “PARANOIA” (remix) with Fever333 and Point North.

In late 2023, Garzi announced signing to world renowned independent label, Sumerian Records and dropped stand alone single 'Growin' Up", kicking off a whole new era. He then followed up with single "Much Better" in April of this year. With "Drag" he boldly steps further into his next chapter.

Garzi Unveils Brand New Single & Music Video "Much Better"

Fresh from the vibrant crossroads of alternative rock and post-emo, Garzi has dropped his brand new single, "Much Better" and it's accompanying music video, out now via Sumerian Records. Navigating the complex tapestry of mental health through this new track, Garzi offers his signature blend of potent vulnerability and defiance on "Much Better". Fans can stream the new track HERE and can watch the official music video HERE below.

Speaking on his new track, Garzi shares

"A song that touches on depression being recognized as the dopamine of validation while also having head-trip battles with the inner voice trying to convince oneself that they are 'feeling much better'. In those moments of feeling better, we try to hang onto it and keep it together. It’s a powerful message disguised as a big song."
