Brady and Les, who lived in Kirkwood and Webster Groves respectively, initially crossed paths during high school at a rodeo. However, it was not until they reconnected at a house party in 2012 that they contemplated collaborating. Winter of 2015 marked their first foray into joint music production, with recording sessions taking place in Chicago. Eventually, they self-released their debut EP, titled "100 gecs," on July 12, 2016. The origins behind their chosen moniker, "100 gecs," remain a matter of dispute, as varying and contradictory explanations have been provided by Brady and Les in interviews.
Despite initial plans to create more music together, time constraints hindered their progress until their collaboration for the 2019 Minecraft Fire Festival. Subsequently, they resumed working on songs by sending Logic files over email back and forth. They released their debut single, "Money Machine," on May 29, 2019. Shortly after, their first full-length album, "1000 gecs," was released on May 31, 2019, receiving favorable reviews. The album itself is described as a 23-minute sonic experience featuring a diverse range of musical influences, blending elements of ringtone rap, pop punk, trance pop, abstract sound structures, power ballads, rap, EDM, dubstep, death metal, and ska. The lyrics of the songs reflect the intricacies and anxieties of the digital age, with autotune-drenched vocals adding emotion and a sense of delirium.
In August 2019, Dylan Brady released the stems for "1000 gecs," inspiring fans and friends of 100 gecs to create numerous remixes. Reviewing the remixes, Brady and Les embarked on compiling a remix album.
In September 2019, it was announced that 100 gecs, alongside Slowthai, would support Brockhampton on their Heaven Belongs to You Tour later that year. Additionally, 100 gecs headlined six of their shows in various cities during the tour.
Rolling Stone recognized 100 gecs as an "Artist You Need to Know" in 2019. Music critic Jon Caramanica of The New York Times hailed "1000 gecs" as the best album of 2019, with various other publications, including Crack Magazine, Noisey, Paper, Pitchfork, and Stereogum, also ranking it among the best albums of the year.
On July 10, 2020, the duo released the remix compilation album "1000 gecs and The Tree of Clues." (initially titled "1000 gecs & th3 phant0m m3nace"). It features guest appearances by artists such as Injury Reserve, A. G. Cook, and Black Dresses.
In 2020, 100 gecs signed with Atlantic Records. Brady told NME they are trying to be as big as Ed Sheeran, while Les said Atlantic was a good fit for what they wanted to accomplish.
The duo headlined the Minecraft festival Square Garden in April 2020, sharing the virtual stage with notable artists such as Charli XCX, Kero Kero Bonito, Dorian Electra, and Cashmere Cat.
On November 15, 2020, they released the standalone single "Lonely Machines" with the American band 3OH!3. They followed this up with the Christmas song "Sympathy 4 the Grinch."
In early 2021, 100 gecs released a remix of Linkin Park's "One Step Closer" to commemorate the 20th anniversary of Linkin Park's debut studio album, "Hybrid Theory." Following this release, the duo embarked on individual projects.
In July 2021, they announced the 10000 gecs Tour, scheduled to take place from October to December in North America. On November 19, 2021, 100 gecs released the first single from their album, "MeMeMe," during the tour, accompanied by a music video.
On April 12, 2022, they released "Doritos & Fritos" as the second single from "10,000 gecs." Diverging from their established sound, the track exhibits more characteristics of alt-rock than hyperpop. A music video for the song premiered on May 16, 2022.
On December 2, 2022, 100 gecs released their second EP, "Snake Eyes," featuring a visualizer for the track "Torture Me" featuring Skrillex. On February 16, 2023, they released "Hollywood Baby" alongside a music video, serving as the third single from the album.
Following multiple delays, "10,000 gecs" was finally released on March 17, 2023, accompanied by the music video for the album's final single, "Dumbest Girl Alive," which garnered positive reviews.
