GARRETT PAKNIS (May 12, 1986) is an American producer, rapper, singer, electronic artist and actor based in London. He's known for his song FIRE (2019) that was on radio in London,UK as well as for the productions Black Dog, Red Dog (2015), Together After the Apocalypse (2012) and 8:46 (2011).
Born in Summit, New Jersey and raised in New Vernon (Harding Township), New Jersey, GARRETT has been writing poetry since he was seven years old and got his start in the entertainment industry in New York City when he was just fifteen. He spent the next decade of his life working as a model, actor, and photographer, and even wrote a book in his 20s. After two years spent living in Berlin, Germany, focusing on his music career, he relocated to London and is now conquering the UK with his talent, passion and determination.
"Being exposed to everything (in Berlin), has helped me shape my own sound. Because I always knew I’d be crossing genres since I basically make sexy spoken word music. Ha! Taking elements from all genres has helped me find a more authentic voice for myself. The clothes I wear… the dancing I do… tells a story. Of flow. Of harmony. Of cohesion. Fashion has always been an integral part of my life and art, and always will be. Even in my personal life, fashion tells the story of where I am at that current time of my life. Sometimes I wake up wanting to wear eyeliner and latex and some days I want to wear athletic shorts and a tank top. My art is the same — there’s no separation from it and my life. It’s all a story, a full vision." - PAKNIS says
His mixtape ‘LIKE THE MOON’ was released on June 12th 2020 on Soul Gold Records.
