Merv xx Gotti is the award-winning Canadian multi-genre artist behind the solo singer-songwriter dream-pop project, "Guitar Songs.” He is also the singer of the hip-hop/R&B duo, Samurai Champs, as well as the indie-emo band, GHOSTFORM. Additionally, he is the Founder and Artistic Director of the award-winning Canadian DJ & artist collective, Trifecta Sound Co.

His latest project, "Guitar Songs," explores a more minimal sound, emphasizing androgynous, dreamy vocals to deliver vulnerable, sincere songwriting. The first single from the project, “Jiujitsu,” was the biggest syndication pick-up in the past 5 years for a Saskatchewan artist as it was played by 21 CBC stations across the country. Online, singles from “Guitar Songs” have already amassed over 50,000 streams on Spotify and been picked up on multiple influencer playlists.

The debut EP release for "Guitar Songs" is scheduled for Spring 2024.
