Diego Garcia is making the days much sunnier this summer…

The Argentinian American musician, the former lead singer of the post-punk band Elefant, has released the single “Sunnier Days,” from his upcoming solo album Paradise, due October 8.

Garcia is best known for being part of the early-aughts New York scene that spawned the Strokes and Interpol.

His band Elefant played countless downtown gigs and even opened for the latter on tour.

In April 2011, Garcia released his first solo album Laura, which was inspired by his then-girlfriend Laura.

New York magazine once described Garcia as the “Sexiest Lead Singer.”
