The Bird and the Bee Rock Adjacent to Birds, Bees
Autumn De Wilde
The Bird and the Bee play Descanso Gardens on Thursday, June 25th
We've seen plenty of birds at Descanso Gardens. Not sure about the whole bee department. Maybe a few deliciously fat spiders passing time in some gorgeous bed-sized webs, but that's in the fall, so don't freak out, arachnophobes.
But the Bird and the Bee -- as in Inara George and Greg Kurstin -- will be fluttering about Descanso on Thursday, June 25th, starting at 6:15PM. If you're a fan of the duo, you know that George and Kurstin's pop-sweet music is a perfect fit for a bloom-y, beautiful spot. In our minds, we're spread out on the grass in something gossamer, starring at the darkening sky, while "Again & Again" plays again and again.
The concert is going down just before sundown, that magic hour, and Patina Catering will be on the grounds boxing up barbecue for $10 (including, wait for it, chili-lime skirt steak). There will be no-alcohol, lemonade-laden "Bird" and "Bee" cocktails, too.
Thursday. Gloaming. Skirt steak and virgin bevs. Damp grass and clever, perky songs. Somewhere, in the distance, a wee spider spins.
