Bobby Garza

The demands of being a City Council aide are tough enough – with a scant seven council members for a city of almost 800,000, aides act as de facto council members themselves, sussing out the issues for each office. Despite the workload, Bobby Garza, family man and executive assistant to Mayor Pro Tem Mike Martinez, finds time to – what else? – rock. He's a singer and percussionist with reunited Latino indie rockers Maneja Beto and also sat on the high-profile Live Music Task Force. Crank the agenda up to 11, Bobby!
