Originally from the 956, Brownsville, TX, the self-proclaimed "Emo Latino" has called Dallas his home for nearly a decade. Rafa (real name, Rafael Garcia) picked up a guitar when his middle-school crush mentioned an interest in guitarists. He later transitioned from listening to American emo bands like Fall Out Boy and My Chemical Romance to Mexican punk bands like Pxndx who highly influence his songwriting. Although his songs reflect on life on both sides of the Mexico-U.S. border, his musical identity has no borders. One day he’ll write a Spanish pop song and the next he’ll pen an English lo-fi ballad. Rafa is undeniably himself and his music is no exception. 🌊 𝖍𝖔𝖑𝖆 𝖜𝖔𝖗𝖑𝖉 🌎 -𝖗𝖆𝖋𝖆
