| August 18, 2025 (Greystones, IE) // Garrett Anthony Rice’s latest single “I Found Myself Today” opens like a slow-burn memory and unravels into something far larger, a song built in six sections, shaped by instinct, and heavy with the kind of truth that never fades. Raised in Ireland during the 1980s, Rice came of age in the glow of cathode-ray warnings and cold war countdowns. British television beamed images of mushroom clouds and fallout shelters, while the music of the era, all sharp suits and synths, throbbed with the anxious glamour of a world on the brink. That pulse is here in the DNA of “I Found Myself Today,” threaded through its electronic textures like a vein of light cutting through steel. |

The track doesn’t march in a straight line. It pushes forward in bursts, driven by muscular riffs before pulling back into moments of restraint in an ebb and flow that mirrors the chaos and quiet that live side-by-side in times of conflict. In a year when the devastation in Gaza and the unrelenting fight in Ukraine dominate the headlines, that tension feels especially close. By the time the song reaches its mellow, reflective outro, you’ve already travelled through something: urgency, dissonance, release. It’s a song about the persistence of war’s shadow, whether in headlines or half-forgotten fears. But it’s also about voice, and the refusal to stay silent when that shadow looms. “I Found Myself Today” joins the unfolding Equinox, an 18-track double album recorded across Ireland and the UK in 2024. With each single, Rice has revealed a new angle: the gospel haze of “Eden,” the road-dust rock of “In the Sun,” and now, a track that carries an urgency you can feel in your bones. Equinox is coming. “I Found Myself Today” is what it sounds like when the temperature shifts. |

About Garrett Anthony Rice |
|
Hailing from County Dublin, Ireland, and now living in Greystones, County Wicklow, for the last twenty years with his family, Garrett Anthony Rice intends to make a significant impact on the global music scene in 2025.
“EQUINOX” is the first double album (18 songs) to be released by a debut solo artist as their second record in musical history, so the task of writing and completing this record was pretty daunting and enormous.
Garrett released his debut album under the alias of (i) CONSULT in October 2023; entitled "Reflections Part II, the very best of……" which was streamed in 93 countries and peaked the interest of UK producer Chris Potter (The Rolling Stones, Paul McCartney, U2 and The Verve/ Richard Ashcroft) in late 2023.
Out of a possible 30 recorded demos, 18 were selected and recorded throughout 2024, both in the UK and Ireland and already the well-known and esteemed music professionals who worked on this record and who have heard it are lauding this album as the record of this year.
“EQUINOX” will be available to pre-save closer to the time of release on vinyl and all platforms. |
