Garagista Music.
Music for people like us.
Like us, you rank music right along with food, shelter, and clothing: an absolute essential. It's your personal soundtrack, your calling card, the rhythm you walk to, the vibe you emit.

What's more, not only do you identify with music but you identify through music. We're talking all kinds of music, too. Rock, jazz, folk, pop, world, blues, classical... you won't be pigeonholed by cookie-cutter formats or demographic fads.

Sound about right?

We’re building Garagista to be a gathering place for people like us. Here, great music, spanning various genres, is paramount. New artists coexist with legends. Sounds of all sorts blend together, just like they do in your home library.

Think of Garagista as a trusted guide... a way to discover new music and to be reminded of lost gems, handpicked by music nuts like you.

Not Just Another Holiday CD

Add some cool new sounds to your holiday mix with this collection of inspired interpretations of the classics. From an alt rock “Good King Wenceslas” to a bossa-flavored “O Holy Night” to a swingin’ “Jingle Bells” – not to mention the rockabilly “O Little Town of Bethlehem” -- you’ll be surprised and delighted by the fresh new directions these songs take. We’ve also included a few new tunes destined for “holiday mainstay” status.

21 songs + 3 free downloads + a Free Booklet

This was as much fun to make as it is to hear. Over the course of five days in mid-July, dozens of musicians wandered in and out of Second Act Studio in Irvington, NY to record the tracks.

Some artists came with a song they wanted to perform. Others helped make up arrangements on the spot – grabbing the musicians who were there at the time. Some overdubs were added after the fact, but the majority of what you hear came from those original sessions. In every case, you can hear the joy in the tracks.

Rivertown Rock

A collection incorporating every color in the rock palette: from totally modern alt rock, to classic rock stomps, to quiet singer/songwriter introspection. All the artists hail from the artistically-rich Hudson Rivertowns, just north of NYC, but the music is universal. If you want to hear a true cross-section of Rock of the art, check this out.

Rivertown Voices

The little towns along New York's Hudson River, just north of Manhattan, have always attracted artistic types. Even folks with serious "day jobs" frequently indulge their Inner Muse. Garagista Music is a new label devoted to sharing the work of artists you might not otherwise hear.

Rivertown Voices showcases the prodigious vocal gifts of our local singers. Whether it's a jazz standard, a Broadway gem or something beyond category, each performance conveys a passion for bringing songs to life.

We hope you enjoy this virtual visit to our corner of the world.
