Grant Barbosa

Grant Barbosa is an independent music artist and the creator of Synaptic Dream Pop, a new electronic Gospel music genre created & recorded in virtual reality. Grant plays every instrument themself and composes the music in an improvisational Jazz-like style - though the genre also draws on pop, rock, hip-hop, R&B, and, of course, electronic music. It also draws influences from film, television, video games, anime, etc. Diagnosed with PTSD in June 2022, making music initially started as art therapy for Grant to deal with trauma that led to their diagnosis. Both making and listening to this new music genre seems to have helped Grant learn to live with & manage their PTSD.


Given the role establishing this genre has played in their healing, Grant has principally focused on building out the larger Synaptic Dream Pop mehtaverse - the larger shared universe of the Synaptic Dream Pop albums released so far.
