Nestled in the heart of East Los Angeles, a magical concert unfolded in the lush garden of Chef Wendy's home. The setting was intimate and romantic, with a majestic oak tree serving as a focal point and the last rays of sunlight filtering through the foliage.
Pastels, the host and featured artist, delivered an ethereal performance with their full band for the first time since moving to LA just over a week ago. The music floated through the air, creating a dreamlike atmosphere that captivated the audience. Their latest single, "Crush," perfectly encapsulated the feeling of a tentative romance, serving as a fitting finale to the evening.
The event was graced by surprise guests, including Silas Short and the 11-time platinum artist Jeff Bernat, whose impromptu cover brought the crowd together. A highlight of the night was an audience participation moment, where Christopher (aka DJ Legacy) improvised humorous lyrics about California's cost of living.
The garden party atmosphere was elevated by Chef Wendy's farm-to-table menu, featuring produce from her own garden and cleverly named after the songs performed. Guests, dressed to the nines, sipped on homemade beverages while enjoying the flirtatious and smooth sounds, particularly evident in the crowd favorite, "After Midnight."
This exclusive event, which drew attendees from as far as Seattle, showcased not just musical talent but also the power of community in LA's artistic scene. It was a night where music, nature, and culinary arts blended seamlessly, creating an unforgettable experience for all fortunate enough to attend.
