Since then he worked as a solo artist, while continuing to play occasional shows with Mark Kano, lead singer of Athenaeum.
[3] In 2006, he released Live at the Evening Muse, a CD/DVD of a solo acoustic show he recorded at a venue in Charlotte, North Carolina, in June 2005.
The primary members of the evening's band – dubbed The Maxell 90 – were Scott Carle (Garrigan's drummer from Collapsis), Tom Mills (Johnny Folsom 4), Alex Lawhon (The Roman Spring) and Andrew Brahnan (Cage Bird Fancier).
Based on the success of the Motorco event, promoters announced an encore performance will take place on March 3, 2023, at the Lincoln Theatre in Raleigh, North Carolina.
As of early 2023, Garrigan is finalizing his debut professional music video for the song "Satellites," co-written with fan and Nashville-based songwriter Jonathan Ferreri in 2021.
