Garibaldi's half sister is Lisa Marie Presley, Elvis's only child.[2] He is the uncle of Riley and Benjamin Keough through Lisa.

Them Guns

Them Guns is a Los Angeles-based rock band made up of members Garibaldi (Guitar/Lead Vocals), Kyle Hamood (Lead Guitar/Vocals), Chris Hudson (Drums), Kyle Hamood (Keys) and Chuck Holiday (Bass). Santa Cruz Waves described their sound as "...a rock base, a tinge of surf/ska vocals, and funked out keys, a sound to satisfy the traditional, to alternative, to psychedelic rock music enthusiasts... birthed from the barrels of Them Guns."[3]

Garibaldi cites his musical influences as "Nine Inch Nails, Nirvana, Kings of Leon to the likes of the Chemical Brothers."[4]

In the United States, Them Guns have had sold out shows at The Viper Room, The Troubadour in West Hollywood and many other rock venues.[5] Their UK debut was on April 4, 2013, at The Kings Head Club in Hoxton.[6] It was the first time that The Kings Head Club had hosted a live band and the show was a private one.[7]

Drug use

At age 17, Garibaldi was arrested for speeding while driving and being in possession of hallucinogenic mushrooms and under the influence of marijuana.[8][9]

It has been reported that Garibaldi has also battled heroin addiction[10][11][12]
