Geneva Garvin played in several bands during the 2000s, including Obelisk and Vibe Central, but Bubonic Plague gained the biggest following. Songs from the group's self-issued CD-Rs additionally appeared on her solo releases as Geneva Jacuzzi, and some of her work appeared on Human Ear Music, a Los Angeles-based label that also released early recordings by Julia Holter and Nite Jewel. Jacuzzi contributed covers to Manimal Vinyl-issued tributes to the Cure and Madonna, and her first vinyl release, the Group Dynamic EP, was issued by Big Love Records in 2009. Lamaze, a selection of tracks recorded to cassette between 2004 and 2009, was released by Vinyl International in 2010. Her track "The Sleep Room" was included on the Stones Throw-issued Minimal Wave Tapes Volume Two in 2012.
Jacuzzi toured with artists such as John Maus and sometime collaborator Ariel Pink, and presented installations, videos, and art performances at galleries, venues, and festivals on several continents. Her second album, Technophelia, was co-produced by Chris Coady and released by Medical Records in 2016. She issued two volumes of Secret Demos as tour-only CD-Rs, and guested on releases by Spookey Ruben, Jorge Elbrecht, and Raw Thrills. In 2020, Mexican Summer released Jacuzzi's 2010-recorded "Dark Streets" as part of their Looking Glass singles series, and the label reissued Lamaze in 2021. ~ Paul Simpson, Rovi
