The Red Pears have announced one of their biggest hometown headlining shows set for this fall. The event is set to take place at the Shrine Expo Hall in Los Angeles, California on Saturday, November 16.
Following their recent performance at the Kia Forum in support of Chicano Batman, local indie rock favorites The Red Pears return with their own headlining show in support of their latest release Better Late Than Never. The band announced a fall tour which will kick off September 12 in San Diego, CA and conclude on October 23 in Santa Cruz, CA with support from Ultra Q and The High Curbs. Following the tour, The Red Pears return to LA for a headlining performance at the Shrine Expo Hall. Late Night Drive Home, Floats, Mexican Slum Rats, and longtime friends Archer Oh will open for The Red Pears.
Originally from El Monte, CA a town east of Los Angeles, The Red Pears’ founding members, Henry Vargas (vocals/guitar) and Jose Corona (drums), draw their sound from the spectrum between the early 2000s New York indie rock and grunge scene to the cumbia and corridos that soundtracked their childhoods. After cycling through an assortment of lineups, mutual friend and bassist Patrick Juarez stayed on and expanded their operation. Now a solid three-piece band, the emerging alt-rockers have come a long way from meeting at a local Battle of the Bands, practicing in their garages, and naming themselves after their favorite color and a pun on the word “pair”. The Red Pears first got on the map with self-releases For Today, For Tomorrow, For What Is, For What Could’ve Been and We Bring Anything to the Table… Except Tables We Can’t Bring Tables to the Table, that led to expansive touring and learning the ins-and-outs of being on the road. In 2021, the band released You Thought We Left Because The Door Was Open, But We Were Waiting Outside, an album that marked a reinvention of their nostalgic indie attitude.
Their ascending career has seen the band sell out venues nationwide on numerous headlining tours, including a rapidly sold-out show at the renowned The Wiltern Theater in Los Angeles at the end of 2022. The group has opened for bands like Beach Fossils and Wild Nothing and graced coveted festival stages like Coachella, Tropicalia, ZONA Fest, and SXSW.
