He delivers his songs with a heart-rendering rawness. We are able to relate to his experience in the song. “These Arms of Mine” is about a very acute kind of pain and extremely tender love that are able to exist simultaneously.
Garza is somehow able to create a song that is melancholy and affectionate at the same time. Beyond the gentle lyrics, the artist is able to achieve this effect through his smooth sound and vocals. His voice meshes perfectly with the alternative sound found in “These Arms of Mine.”
Garza is the kind of artist who has discovered a way to cultivate his own unique style while utilizing the best aspects of the genre. It is refreshing to find an indie love song that is not stepped in pain and suffering.
