The Red Pears

The Red Pears are an indie/alternative band from El Monte, CA just a little east of Los Angeles. The band consists of Henry Vargas on guitar and vocals, Jose Corona on drums, and their good friend Patrick Juarez taking on bass duties. The Red Pears were created the summer of 2014, when Jose and Henry got together forming another with a new concept- having known each since high school playing in different groups, separately and together. Things took off for The Red Pears rather quickly, crediting shared similar influences, similar backgrounds and a similar mindset as the main reasons.   Starting off as a duo, their first gig was an open mic at a church. Eventually the duo evolved into a trio and started playing anything from house parties, to bars, to coffee shops, to open mics. The next natural step was to go into the studio and record. Putting together a small budget and recording in converted garages and bedrooms-they released their debut recording We Bring Anything to the Table… Except Tables, We Can’t Bring Tables to the Table, which garnered unexpected attention. The band has been on an upward trajectory ever since releasing their latest record For Today, For Tomorrow, For What Is, For What Could’ve Been- expanding their Los Angeles presence with shows in Nor Cal and the Southwest.
