THE GARDEN PARTY: Red Cortez (The Weather Underground)
Once again we take the simple idea of getting a band to play an acoustic set in an intimate outdoor environment. Invite some friends and fans to watch the show. Then, film the whole thing and what do you get? The Garden Party.
BeatCrave presents Red Cortez (formerly known as The Weather Underground) in The Garden Party #2.
For our latest installment of the Garden Party series, we present L.A.’s own Red Cortez (formerly know as the Weather Underground). On a perfect summer evening in Hollywood, Harley, Ryan, Diego and Jimmy graced a lucky group of friends and fans with songs of holy men and sailors. These haunting sounds showcase a quieter side to the band and highlight the transitions they’ve gone through recently. Special guest sitting in on guitar, banjo and accordion is Jimmy Cabeza DeVaca from Dios (Malos).
Be sure to check out Red Cortez with their new permanent guitarist, Calvin J. Love, on their west coast tour with Little Joy.
Enjoy!
