'Nic Garcia sings beautiful lullabies for those cold, starry nights when the only thing around to keep you company is a bottle of robotussin and a taxidermied deer head.
'~ ripsaw news 'Evocative of empty skies and long car journeys, Garcia takes you somewhere very special. The 'why' and 'how' of it is almost inexplicable – could it me the tremolo of his guitar, the whisper of his voice, the strange ambience of the record, the vacancy of his lyrics that transports you? I don't know, but what ever he does, he does it and he does it well. I challenge you to listen to 'Crosses' and not have someone physically shake you afterwards in order to bring you back. 4/5 - Music-News '~ music news 'On Nic Garcia’s newest, The Desperate Ones, or more specifically, the mp3s below, he reminds me of a one man Picastro or Low. His songs are sweetly mellow and sparse which add to the winter-esque feel (and timely release of his album). Another song on the album, “In The Time of the Wolf,” available for stream at the Yer Bird website, is a bit more of an upbeat tune but still focuses on Nic’s strong song writing. Definitely a must if you like singer songwriter types like Elliott Smith, Nick Drake but with an atmosphere of slowcore bands like Low.
