Hailing from Greystones, County Wicklow via Dublin, Garrett Anthony Rice blends various influences as diverse as Richard Ashcroft, The Smiths, Neil Young and David Bowie to produce highly emotive and compelling lyrics and music.
Rice wrote, arranged and played on almost all of the instruments on his debut album in October 2023 then as an alias i CONSULT which has 130k streams to date. That album caught the interest of Chris Potter producer (The Rolling Stones, Paul McCartney, Richard Ashcroft) and a double album of 18 songs entitled “EQUINOX” is due for release mid 2025. The first single “My Sons” which Rice wrote for the mother of Noel and Liam of OASIS when they were estranged is now live on all platforms.
The following single “ PROPERTY (an ode to Roger Syd Barrett, a genius, 1946-infinity)” released on 25 April which Rice wrote for Syd Barrett of Pink Floyd has received global praise and has been played internationally on radio (including RTE 2 XM) Irelands national broadcaster.
With the new single “Eden” which Rice wrote for/about Richard Ashcroft releasing on 20 June 2025, this song is a southern delta blues rap song, swirling consistently with atmospherics, slide guitar and gospel choir elements.
High level production industry professionals are already predicting Rice’s upcoming double album of 18 songs “EQUINOX” will win awards.
