Garcia has received overwhelming buzz since the release of her debut albumMedicine for Birds last fall, earning critical acclaim from The New York Times, NPR, Paste, American Songwriter and more. Most recently, her song "Orange Flower" was featured in NPR's Top 100 Songs of 2016, who proclaimed it "a raucous blues rock track with perfectly sarcastic lyrics you won't be able to get out of your head," and Paste Magazine branded her "Best of What's Next," praising her "unique hybrid of West Coast bohemia and rural Americana."
The 22-year old Richmond-based songstress was born in Los Angeles, but moved to Accomac, VA as a teen when her stepfather traded a career in the music industry for the Episcopalian priesthood. Garcia's family lived in a 200-year-old gothic brick home encircled by magnolia trees. Isolated and alone, Garcia locked herself in the parish house and fashioned a musical world that veers between ghostly gorgeous countrified blues and sly swamp Americana. With a childlike whimsy, quirky sense of humor, and dynamic delivery, it could easily soundtrack an apparitions' ball in some Faulknerian mansion.
Medicine for Birds was recorded by Charlie Peacock (The Civil Wars, Switchfoot) in Nashville. "It's like the songs grew up at that moment," Garcia says. "Charlie showed me how big and crazy they could be. I felt like a hermit coming out. He was the ambassador to this sonic realm I didn't know about it. The music became limitless."
