Aquanaut Media was created in 2013 when Chris and Grant decided to collaborate on a project under the same brand. After much discussion, Aquanaut Media was born. Unfortunately, it took roughly four years before the fellas would figure out exactly what Aquanaut Media was going to be.
It took a lot of experimentation, but they would reunite eventually. While Chris found success with several music projects, Grant worked on graphic design, illustration, and a music project of his own. Ultimately, Grant found himself returning to the stage, a creative outlet that he thought he left in his high school and college years. Fortunately, through the aid of some improv comedy classes, Grant found that performing comedy was more fulfilling than his previous creative endeavors.
In 2017, it was decided that the lads should combine their powers once and for all. They decided to create a stage show in which Grant would be the host and Chris would be the band leader. This show was the Aquanaut Variety Hour.
That show doesn't happen anymore thanks to a global pandemic, but you can still buy the sweaters, hoodies, and shirts with Grant's graphics
