Imagine a kind of music that knows no stylistic barriers; music that borrows from the best of many traditions to create a new reality, an alternate reality.
“Alternate Realities” is guitarist/bassist Al Garcia’s follow up to his highly acclaimed first release “Make It So.” Combining elements of jazz-rock fusion, progressive rock, classical, jazz, Latin, space rock, electronica, and cinematic music, Al’s music transcends boundaries.
This is music that will take you places. Soaring guitar solos, percolating bass lines, lush synthesizer sounds, and driving percussion are featured in songs with infectious melodies and inventive arrangements.
“It is the kind of music that will take you away on its storied journey.”
Al Garcia is a talented multi-instrumentalist who plays 4, 5, and 6 string fretted and fretless basses and various 6 string electric and acoustic guitars.
