With Mexican and Salvadoran roots in the San Gabriel Valley, East of Los Angeles, Angelica Garcia has spent the last few years creating a new, second family for herself within the welcoming community of Richmond, VA. The bond is christened with the announcement of Garcia's signing to Spacebomb Records and the release of her first two singles for the preeminent Richmond label: 'It Don't Hinder Me,' an anthem celebrating her roots that blends Wall of Sound pop and Southern rock, and 'Karma The Knife,' a Reaggeaton-meets-dancehall earworm. 'It Don't Hinder Me' arrives alongside a new Spencer Ford-directed video filmed in the surrounding neighborhoods of Garcia's family's home in El Monte, California, featuring family photos and shots at local favorites like Tyler Market & Tacos El Arco.
Garcia explains, "'It Don't Hinder Me' is a song about being proud of
where I come from. I went to a magnet school that united different
sectors of Los Angeles county, everything from Pasadena to West LA to El
Monte & more inland. The school mixed kids from different backgrounds.
Back then I often saw myself as not being cool like the kids of
screenwriters and stars. This song rebukes the idea that you have to
come from glamour or money to be cool. My 'beautiful' & 'cool' version
of LA is the immigrant household of my grandparents."
