Wild Riot: The Tracks with Kid Congo Powers and The Pink Monkey Birds / Ritchie White Orchestra

Wild Riot held their second event of 2021. This event was held at a small local movie studio called Open The Portal. They have a large outdoor area that Wild Riot was able to use to host The Tracks, Kid Congo & The Pink Monkey Birds, and Ritchie White Orchestra. 

It was held on a Saturday night and I'm not going to lie, I was chilled to the bone. But there were a number of people wearing t-shirts and skirts and they didn't seem all that cold so maybe it was just me. 

Ritchie White Orchestra opened the night with a number of cover songs that got the crowd in a good mood.

The Tracks then came on stage in support of their new single, "Glance." Their music has that garage rock sound that sort of reminds you of early U2 and REM. They have an upcoming album called “Paredón Blanco.” Not only is that the album title, but it is also the original name of Boyle Heights.

Closing out the night was Kid Congo & The Pink Monkey Birds -- that is a long band name. The band opened up with the amusing and catchy tune called Shitty Dreamhouse.  The music reminds one of the The Rolling Stones.
