El Scorcho formed in the summer of 2004 with the goal of creating the highest quality Weezer experience, next to actually seeing Weezer live. Brad, Braxton, Art and Dan practiced for 4 months before playing their first show, making sure they got all the details right.
Since their formation, El Scorcho has become a sure-fire hit amongst it's Atlanta and Athens Georgia crowds. They've played many private events as well as bars, clubs, and large festivals. In 2005 El Scorcho helped organize The Beer and Whiskey Fest , which generated over $5000 for the victims of Hurricane Katrina.
Now in 2007, with our friends Brad and Dan moving on, Jon and Cory step in to continue the ultimate Weezer experience.
If you're looking for an experience that rivals seeing Weezer play live, you've come to the right place!..[if !IE]
