WE SAY

A quick glance at the Top 75 midweeks will show you this future worldwide smash from gnash (the ‘’g’ is silent, by the way) is starting to grab mainstream attention and rise rapidly with over 130,000 daily plays on Spotify in the UK alone. Globally, it’s now in their Top 30 and has notched up more than 52 million streams plus appeared in viral charts here and in the US. So who exactly is he? Well, his actual name is Garrett, he grew up in LA, and writes and produces all of his music in his garage, keeping the sound clean and simple. He cleverly uses Twitter to write lyrics for his songs, then takes fan feedback to inspire the direction of his future work. It’s a personal DIY connection that’s led him to play fan gigs in parks, where he sells merchandise such as self-made tie-dye t-shirts and his signature round glasses. He’s a true 2016 artist and his three EPs to date reflect his honest passion to become someone who makes a difference. gnash is a proper organic phenomena and this is on course to become one of the year’s major hits everywhere. Warning: contains explicit language throughout.
