'The Return of Pachyman' is a 21st century take on the classic dub foundation.” - NPR MUSIC   “Aside from being a master-level instrumentalist, Pachyman is a breezy, fun-loving, and freedom seeking artist… His works are a well sonically seasoned mix, in which his Puerto Rican roots shine bright.” - SPIN   “Pachyman is not to be slept on. Born in San Juan, PR, and now residing in Los Angeles, Garcia’slatest long-player is laced with the good shit. At a dozen tracks, it’s a roots ride of originals, all with knowing nods to the genre’s greatest innovators.” - AQUARIUM DRUNKARD   Pachyman, the LA based one-man-dub-band of multi-instrumentalist Pachy Garcia, has shared the official music video for “Sunset Sound.” The song is from his recent album The Return Of Pachyman.    The Return of Pachyman is a supernatural force from a brave new world that’s a little bit San Juan, a little L.A., and a whole lot of Channel One in Kingston, Jamaica. Designed to be a resurrection of sound systems from the past through which we can celebrate a post-Trump future, the record shows that blasting off into reggae’s deep space has never gone out of style. It’s a high-flying journey into a different kind of dub vibe, as García tells it, by composing songs “in major keys, which is not as common with reggae nowadays.”   García hails from Puerto Rico, where he grew up immersed in the music of local reggae heroes Cultura Profética and classic Jamaican dub records from King Tubby and Scientist. After relocating to Los Angeles, he fell in with the weekly Echo Park reggae night Dub Club and began creating his own dub music, influenced by the Caribbean sounds of his youth, and recording guitar, bass, drums, and piano in his basement studio. García began to organically build an enthused following in the reggae community and was given the 2021 Discovery Award at this year’s Latin Alternative Music Conference (LAMC).      Upcoming 2022 Tour Dates 1/25 Brooklyn, NYC - Bowery Ballroom # 1/26 Philadelphia, PA - Underground Arts # 2/10 Leuven, BE - Het Depot 2/11 Maastricht, NL - Muziekgieterij 2/12 Utrecht, NL - Footprints Festival  2/13 Nijmegen, NL - Merleyn 2/15 Antwerpen, BE - Trix 2/16 Angers, FR - Joker's Pub 2/17 Beauvais, FR - L'ouvre-Boîte 2/18 La Rochelle, FR - La Sirène 2/20 Brighton, UK – Hope & Ruin 2/22 London, UK - Oslo Hackney 2/23 Bristol, UK - The Crofter`s Rights 2/24 Leffinge, BE - De Zwerver 2/25 Lille, FR - L'Aeronef 2/26 Paris, FR - Petit Bain 3/2 - 3/5 Cancun, MX - One Big Holiday Festival 4/4 Montreal, QUE - Le National * 4/5 Toronto, ONT - The Axis Club * 4/7 Chicago, IL - Thalia Hall * 4/8 Minneapolis, MN - Varsity Theater * 4/9 Madison, WI - Majestic Theater * 4/12 Vancouver, BC - Rickshaw Theater * 4/13 Seattle, WA - The Crocodile * 4/14 Portland, OR - Revolution Hall * # opening for Genesis Owusu * opening for Altin Gün
