Elefant singer "loves" Morrissey

The hottest singer in NY loves Morrissey, Bowie and Iggy Pop. More proof that Morrissey's next wave of hipness is in full swell.

Elefantfrontman rides a wave of attention - Boston Globe, Feb. 22, 2004
---
Excerpt:

Garcia's boundless enthusiasm isn't unfounded. His band Elefant released one of last year's most exhilarating rock albums, "Sunlight Makes Me Paranoid," a collection of 10 slanted dance tracks that set Garcia's darkly romantic vocals in a bouffant mass of swirling synths, throbbing beats, and fevered guitars. The band shamelessly flaunts its influences -- glam-rock and new wave, Joy Division and the Cure -- but happily hacks them to bits and rebuilds the beast with shimmering style.

"I love David Bowie. I love Morrissey. I love Iggy Pop for being pure. I love certain poets, the color light blue. I love Brazilian girls!" gushes Garcia.
