Grant Mullen

Grant Mullen and Henry LaVallee met in pre-school. In their teenage years they took up practicing music together and discovered they had musical chemistry. At 17 or 18, the duo decided to pursue music together and create the band. Naked Giants had their first practice in August, 2014. Gianni was part of a synthpop band called Laser Fox at the time, playing bass for the group. LaVallee and Mullen discovered Aiello at a live performance at the Crocodile cafe in Seattle. According to Aiello, "they thought I looked really cool, and they liked my moves, and they said I could play the bass really well." He was then invited to perform with them in Mercer Island, and joined the group. They released their first single Easy Eating in 2016, followed by three more prior to the release of the R.I.P. EP, distributed via Miscreant Records. The EP was well received by Andi Villegas of North West Music…
