On Your Radar is back at Rockwood Music Hall Stage 3 - Enter on Orchard Street
From her Berkeley childhood to her Cambridge cutting-of-teeth to her NYC adventures to her San Francisco sidewalk sessions, Rachel Garlin has toured internationally and has spent the quarantine cultivating poetry, activism, and compassion in her community. With her vintage Gibson J50 guitar, Rachel devoted the month of February to writing a new song each day and sharing the creative process--spontaneous and vulnerable. Rachel’s Sidewalk Sessions (playing music for her neighborhood alongside her wife and three kids at the front of their garage), caught the attention of the San Francisco Chronicle and former Rolling Stone Editor Ben Fong-Torres on his MoonAlice radio station. Rachel is currently touring with her 2021 release, The State That We Are In.

The new album features 7 new tracks along the topics of love, heartbreak, mental health, and resiliency.
