After his break from indie pop/rock band Elefant the tall dark and handsome Diego Garcia has returned with a new solo release entitled "Laura". The album named after his wife is a throw back to the sounds of late 60's/70's spanish folk with hypnotizing cello arrangements and delicate Spanish guitar plucking that makes you feel serenaded like some dame on a white sand beach.
On his journey with the new record Diego is quoted as saying "I made the record to survive," he says. "I had to heal my heart. In other words, I had to get my girl back. It was time to write a record that only my story could tell. Artists like Sandro, Roberto Carlos and Julio Iglesias were early pioneers in what I like to refer to as a movement of romanticism in music. It only made sense for me to pick up where they left off."
"For the last four years, I've been following my instincts in search for a new sound," Garcia continues. A sound that could properly deliver my message on love, or I should say, the 'malady of love.' Minor keys, cello, nylon classical guitars, light drums, and wooden tambourines helped create a vibe for me to whisper the words in her ear."
"So with each new song came a little healing until I eventually started feeling 'better.' The irony is that as soon as I accepted closure, my heart opened up and the sound was born. I was ready to love again."
