Armenian artist Socko (real name Armen Grigoryan) creates music that’s as personal as it is powerful. A producer and live performer, he blends soulful energy with rhythm-driven intensity, combining emotion, groove, and heritage in every piece.

His sound carries the presence of his roots — not as a concept, but as a lived reality. The influence of Armenian culture runs through everything he creates: honest, grounded, and unmistakably his. On stage, he builds a connection that’s both intimate and explosive, always aiming to make people feel and move.

Socko is the most released artist on The Gardens of Babylon label, a regular presence at their global festivals. He’s performed across Europe - Woomoon in Ibiza, GOAT Festival in Portugal, and Voodoo Village in Belgium, to name a few.

Whether in the studio or on stage, Socko’s focus remains the same: to bring people together through music that speaks without needing to explain itself.
