Catching up with San Antonio native Jake Garcia of The Ripe before his band plays the Lonesome Rose
San Antonio native Jake Garcia has been at the forefront of the Texas garage rock and psychedelic music scenes for decades now. After cutting his teeth playing in the Alamo City, Garcia relocated to Chicago then Austin, where he joined renowned psych-rockers The Black Angels and started his own psych-rock club, The 13th Floor. Garcia is back in SA this Thursday for show with his own band, The Ripe, which specializes in power-pop in the Badfinger and Kinks mold.
