About this product
Two years in the making, 25-year-old Angelica Garcia's album Cha Cha Palace is the result of an artist's need to SAY SOMETHING. The second song on the record, InchJícamaInch might only be a minute and 25 seconds in it's entirety, but the message spans generations and is one that resonates deeply for Garcia with her Mexican and Salvadoran roots. Singing/shouting, InchI see you, but you don't see me Jímaca, Jímaca, Guava Tree... I've been trying to tell ya, but you just don't see, like you I was born in this country,Inch Garcia tells the reality for millions of Americans unapologetically and with passion. That feeling of being between places is something Garcia knows well having been raised between multigenerational, multicultural, homes with step-parents and half-siblings. Additionally, she made the journey from the West Coast to the East Coast and back again multiple times before finally settling down in Richmond, Virginia. She fondly recalls Mexican ranchera music always playing throughout her childhood. Ranchera was ingrained within the maternal side of her family with her Mother, Grandmother, Uncle & Aunt constantly singing the traditional music throughout the home of her Grandparents. Like Mitski, Lorde, Billie Eilish, and Rosalía, Garcia isn't afraid to tear pages out of her diary and express emotions that might be difficult and oftentimes daunting to share given today's social and political environment. Like her peers, she joins a new chapter of musicians who are connecting with their audiences on a level that lives outside the reaches of technology, trends, and social media, the daily experience of feeling torn between saying something and doing something, for being a voice and speaking with your voice, of being Latina while being American. And it's humanity and honesty that audiences are looking for and will find in spades throughout each note of Cha Cha Palac

Gemelo is the new album from songwriter and pop auteur Angélica Garcia. It's title is a reference to the twin self - the idea of a second, more intuitive self within. It's a vibrant, prismatic hybrid-pop record that soundtracks a journey through the different stages and forms of grief. Angélica explores it's inherent loneliness, beauty, and tension, eventually finding liberation. Gemelo also expertly deconstructs facets of universal themes like religion, spirit, heritage, and womanhood.

The very first on Frontier Records in March 1980 was an EP by FLYBOYS, a power pop/punk band that began in 1977 with singer/songwriter John Curry and Jim InchTrashInch Decker from THE CROWD (and tangentially, Jay from THE SIMPLETONES, who would later sign to Posh Boy.) FLYBOYS gigged all over the southland, paying their dues opening for every national and local punk band from Huntington Beach to Hollywood. They were anything but typical punks - they wore day-glo clothes and Cuban heels and the songs were maddeningly catchy. Catchy hooks and John Curry's bleached-blonde, spikey pompadour were the bands trademarks. Their first was the ultra-rare Square City/Crayon World 45. Frontier's Lisa Fancher interviewed FLYBOYS for the LA Herald Examiner as she was a super fan, and got the notion to record an EP with the band. The process started in 1979 at Leon Russell's studio in North Hollywood CA, Jim Mankey from the original SPARKS engineered (and Johnette Napolitano from CONCRETE BLONDE was the receptionist!) the record. It took way too long to record and by the time Frontier finally released it, the band decided to call it quits. The EP was released to decent fanfare and gradually became a record collector favorite. Fast forward to 2024, FLYBOYS' bass player and sometime singer/songwriter Scott Lasken was leaving Los Angeles and discovered a reel of five unreleased, unheard (and not even remembered) FLYBOYS demos in his closet! Two songs- InchLive for TodayInch and InchEvery DayInch - did not appear on the Frontier EP but three of the demos do, but all are faster and looser due to the songs being so new and recorded for the first time. What a find that was! FLYBOYS The Complete Flyboys 1978-1980 consists of the Frontier EP, the Square City 45 and five unheard, previously unreleased demos and will gain a whole new respect and enthusiasm for the band that they have deserv
