As Los Angeles comes out of the cool and rainy season the rest of the country calls winter, The Garden Party too will be coming out of it’s hibernation with several exciting shows in the near future. Be sure to keep checking BeatCrave for announcements on the bands and ticket giveaways.
This month, in honor of their current Living Room tour in support of their band/collaboration, Come Gather Round Us, we present more selections from the magical evening that hosted the breathtaking voice and lyrics of Catherine Feeny and the visceral songwriting of The Challenge of Feral Green. We highly recommend seeing them live whether it’s in a Garden or Living Room (if you ask them to, they will play yours). The way these two artists connect with their audience is moving and intimate and will leave you wishing that it would never end.
Below are two more amazing tunes by the musicians… Continue Reading
Last month we featured Catherine Feeny and The Challenge of Feral Green for one of our Garden Parties on BeatCrave. The two gave one of the most heartfelt and beautiful performances I have ever seen while in the middle of what would soon be a 43 stop tour of performing in peoples living rooms. When I heard about how and why they were on this tour, I was blown away.
They managed to pay for their gas with hand drawn CD cases that they would sell in order to get to their next gig. Although I would have loved to tell you more about what I heard, the only way to truly appreciate the spirit of what these two artists accomplished, is to hear it from them. We asked Sebastian, more commonly known as The Challenge of Feral Green, if there was anyway we could write about his experiences on the road and he being the kind man that he is, obliged.
All of the below was written by The Challenge of Feral Green and left unedited by myself. Enjoy!
This is a sneak peek at December’s Garden Party presented by BeatCrave.
For this Garden Party, we were fortunate enough to be entertained with not one, but two gifted musicians – Catherine Feeny and The Challenge of Feral Green. In the midst of their US tour together, where they booked nearly 50 shows playing living rooms across the country, they made one stop in a Garden….ours!
A simple idea…Get a band to play an acoustic set in a low-key outdoor environment. Invite some friends and fans to watch the show. Have the audience interview the band. Then, film the whole thing and what do you get?

Beginning in November BeatCrave will be featuring a number of Garden Parties including music from The Weather Underground, Catherine Feeney, Francisco the Man!, The Challenge of Feral Green, and a whole lot more.
What’s a “Garden Party” you may ask? It’s a intimate group of friends, fans, and music lovers in a garden enjoying an extremely personal acoustic set with their favorite musicians that airs exclusively on BeatCrave.com first. Once a month we will be posting videos of the shows along with an interview with the band. Every few weeks we will be announcing give-aways to upcoming shows, so make sure you keep an eye out for the next Garden Party, you never know who might be next.
Until then, enjoy this sneak preview of The Weather Underground…
