Garcia was the youngest artist ever to be nominated for a Tejano Music award.

Her success has been on an upward path in the past year.

In honor of her Austin roots, last year Mayor Steve Adler proclaimed October 5 to be Mia Garcia Day as a way to celebrate her commitment to music.

She posted to Facebook giving thanks to God for her win.
