Garcia Peoples at Colectivo Back Room in Milwaukee on January 17, 2020

 In January 2020, the Garcia Peoples had embarked on the midwest leg of a tour to promote One Step Behind, their third album released in the previous year and a half.  Already there were reports coming out of China about lockdowns and Emergency Rooms being filled with sick patients. It would be a few more weeks before these issues became more apparent in the US, leading to concert cancellations and lockdowns.

 

After performing shows in Chicago and Grand Rapids, the Garcias came to Milwaukee to record a session for Hear Here Presents and to play at Colectivo Back Room. This show finds them in good spirits and running like a well-oiled machine during an 85-minute set.
