Angelica Garcia
With Hope Simulator Pro.
The songs on Medicine for Birds, Angelica Garcia’s arresting 2016 debut album, spin out like cotton candy — but beware the occasional razorblade. Guitars caress and scrape, strings sweep, percussion clatters and booms, all in service of Garcia’s shimmering, multi-layered vocal arrangements. If you have to put a genre label on this music, it’s Americana; recall Emmylou Harris’ Wrecking Ball and you’re in the neighborhood. Opening is Hope Simulator Pro, the re-emergence of genre-mixing musical seeker Jeremiah Nelson with a clutch of new electronic explorations.
