His major project during this period was The Horribly Awfuls, with whom he made five records in four years. He also did a number of smaller projects with friends and collaborators, including two split solo records with Tyler Shipley, a split solo EP with Matt McLennan, a collaboration with Kevin Scott and a split-cassette with Boat!. In addition, he made a four-song EP with a band called Sacred Feminine in Wrexham, Wales, and appeared as a guest on countless projects including The Consumer Goods, Cone Five, and The Poets.

In addition to being a musician, Gareth has also operated a small independent music label called Grumpy Cloud Records which currently releases most work by Gareth and his close friends. He currently lives in Calgary, Alberta and is working on a new project called The Pantymelters.
