About The Event
If you've ever sung along to Queens of the Stone Age, melted to Chris Cornell's Euphoria Morning, or witnessed Them Crooked Vultures share a stage, you have worshipped at the altar of Alain Johannes. He is the ultimate musician’s musician, the teenage jam partner of Flea and Hillel Slovak who grew up to become the sonic shaman of the entire Palm Desert generator-party scene.
Along with his brilliant late partner Natasha Shneider, Alain founded Eleven and blew the minds of every rock icon on the planet with their peerless, soulful complexity. He doesn't just play instruments; he conjures spirits out of them, coaxing haunting, orchestral depth out of a custom cigar box guitar.
From tracking devastating solo masterworks like Spark and Hum for Ipecac to marching with PJ Harvey’s band of outlaws, Alain is a living conduit of pure, unfiltered musical history. When he steps up to the mic, strip away the stadium hype. Prepare for a masterclass in raw, resonant soul and heavy desert dust.
