Who I Am: Sonny Moore, Better Known as Skrillex
Skrillex is my stage name. My name is Sonny John Moore, and I was born on 15 January 1988 in Los Angeles, California. I'm a DJ, a record producer and a singer-songwriter, and this is where my merch lives.
Where did it start?
In 2004 I moved to Georgia to audition as guitarist for the band From First to Last. I ended up as the band's lead singer instead. I left in 2007 and started working on my own music.
What came first on my own?
My first solo release was the EP Gypsyhook, out in April 2009 on Atlantic Records, still under my own name, Sonny Moore. A year later the Skrillex name took over: My Name Is Skrillex came out as a free EP on 7 June 2010.
What does it sound like?
Electronic dance music, loud and bass-heavy: dubstep, bass music and electro house, and later emo rap and pop on Don't Get Too Close. The music moved a lot over the years, and the designs in the shop move with it.
Three things to know before you shop
- Every design comes on every garment. Tees, long sleeves, crewnecks and hoodies, plus kids' and youth sizes.
- Some designs have a back design. The product photos show both sides.
- Every product page has its own size chart. Check it before you order.
