Life started in 1973 in Córdoba in an hospital that no longer exits right opposite the old train station which is not there either. Soon after I was taken to my dad's home town; a mining town about 90 kms north. I grew up there, bored most of the time, finding some solace in day dreaming about life away from the place.
Mediocre education / school. When I was 21 I started playing guitar after a rather unsucessful attempt to learn to play drums. University, spiritual experience in Northern Ireland, work in England, University again: a diploma in teacher training and a degree in English Philology. I met my best friend for life ( ie wife to be ) in England. Started working as a teacher. Alongside I started playing in a band with my brother who played bass; we defined our music as "psychedelic pop" . I can say that really enjoyed it. Very happy day: Got married to Amanda Patchett in 2000; there was thunder and lightning that day! I was 26. I'm on the right path. Born again and baptised as a Christian on the 31st of March 2002. My son León was born in October that year and my daughter Susannah in February 2005. God is good!!!! Life's busy ; I'm involved in an important position in education in the community. Musically I have a few projects going. Each one is in a different stage of development.
First; Hilario GarcÃa plays the blues.
Basically a solo number. Voice & acoustic guitar. Blues and Gospel numbers. One man, one soul.
Second; The Redemption Blues Band. Power trio. Electric blues.
Third; Mark Wilfern. A fictitious character that plays diverse music. A reluctant urban poet. You never know what Mark is up to.
