"I'm autistic, transgender, off-brand Bryan Garris. Bryanna Garris, if you will. I was born in Southern California, but I grew up bouncing between it and East-Central Indiana because my parents sucked. Most of my early experience with music was through concert band & choir, and I grew up listening to Linkin Park & Evanescence while playing ukulele and singing Top 40 hits at school talent shows. My dad claims my first words were "du hast." I grew up in the Mormon church and became an evangelical after high school, with my first experience performing in a "band" being with a church's worship group. I was exposed to heavy music through my stoner roommates in college, and started learning to scream around then. It wasn't until my mid-20's when COVID had hit, I'd started an IT career, deconstructed my religious beliefs, became one of those trans commies, and heard the breakdown to "Mistakes Like Fractures" that I felt confident enough to produce my own vocal covers and put them on YouTube. I met Joe in 2024 after joining, as vocalist, an Indy nu-core band called No Means which he'd formed with another guitarist, and after self-producing an EP and performing together for a year and a half, I joined PSEUDO-SAINT at the end of 2025. My lyrical & vocal style is heavily influenced by my favorite retro & indie games, as well as bands like Silent Planet, Polaris, Soulkeeper, Pressure Cracks, Invent Animate, Boundaries, and, of course, Knocked Loose."
