Born on the Wasatch Front and raised at the foot of the Rockies, Ben Garcia got his musical start with early success in the alternative rock scene. Yet, after years on long Western highways—often with only bird dogs, horses, and a Gibson Guitar as companions—his music picked up grit from mountain passes and country roads. His songs drive through sometimes stark, sometimes sublime landscapes towards a jagged but unbroken skyline, stopping occasionally at Honky Tonk bars to tell stories of rough, worn cowboy hats, boots, and tales love.
