Garrison was a post-hardcore/punk band based in Boston, Massachusetts from 1996-2004. Garrison released two full length albums, both on Revelation Records. The band used components of post punk, shoegaze, and emocore in their music, and played several hundred concerts throughout the United States, Europe, and Japan.
After officially disbanding in 2004, members of Garrison went on to play with Pointillist, Instruction, Fires, The Fly Seville, Gay for Johnny Depp, Campaign for Real-Time, The Rise Park, Placer, and Kill Verona.

Notes
- Although never an official member, Mike Ushinski filled in on drums during several tours.
- Garrison's actual final shows were performed on a 2003 Japanese tour. This tour often does not appear in the official accounts of Garrison because of the odd lineup which excluded Grillo and found J. Morrissette on bass. The lineup was: Ed McNamara (guitar and vocal), J. Morrissette (bass), Mike Ushinski (drums), Taylor Bearfoot (guitar). Due to this odd final tour, McNamara is the only member of Garrison to play every show.
