Destra Garcia, born in Trinidad, has grown from strength to strength since her 1999 debut and the entertainer is showing no signs of slowing down — challenging herself every year, taking her music and her fans along for the exciting journey. Her music has already proved its staying power and its ability to captivate multiple markets including a performance at 2016 SXSW in Texas. Destra has won fans the world over and has set the mark for high energy live sets that leave audiences wanting more. She firmly believes that you learn more as you grow. From experiences you learn from your choices. You have to do what you have to do to make yourself happy. She barely has time for herself, completing events with her band as well as handling solo performances and now her pride and new found joy to her life baby girl – Xaiya. That’s just one of the sacrifices she’s had to make for her success. Another is spending quality time with her family and friends. Destra is determined to achieve her dream of taking Soca music to international markets.
