Former Kyuss front man John Garcia recently released his first solo album. This self titled solo album has been a long time coming. Garcia who is most famous for his work with Kyuss has worked with a number of stoner rock bands over the past 20 years. The songs on this new album have been compiled over them years and put away waiting for the right moment.
In a recent interview with Coachella Valley Weekly Garcia speaks of what these songs means to him:
“These songs that I have are not ‘B’ sides. They are not leftovers. These are songs that were special to me that I had a personal relationship with. As I got older, as I looked at them every single morning I got up, I started feeling exhausted and felt bad for these songs. I’ve always wanted to do it. At some point in time, it clicked. I was tired of saying ‘yes’ to everything and everyone else with the exception of these songs that were close to me. I said no more. I want to finally do this. This project is tangible. These songs are tangible.”
The album is available now and there are a number of bundle options available.
