Garrett Shider

Garrett is literally a clone created on the Mothership as his dad was Parliament-Funkadelic’s diaper clad guitarist and frontman Garry Shider and Garrett’s music is a direct reflection of the lessons learned from his funky father and the P-Funk crew. His music uses the same concepts of The One, lyrical expression, metaphorical and satirical humor, and musical melodies made famous by P- Funk as well, but with Garrett’s own twist. Garrett is currently performing with the current alignment of Parliament-Funkadelic now taking over a lot of his dad’s parts, and has been performing himself since birth, appearing on The Red Hot Chili Peppers Freaky Styley at the age of 7, honing his talents at DC’s Duke Ellington School of the Arts, where he also had a chance to perform at a very young age with the likes of Stevie Wonder, Anita Baker, Kenny Loggins, Ray Charles, and countless other artist. So needless to say, Garrett is beyond ready to fill those “funky diapers” left behind by his dad!!
