Des Cortez with The Toothpicks
Description
Spending the last year honing their skills, Des Cortez are a force to be reckoned with.
Comprising of high school friends Devlin (drums) Paddy (bass) and Sam (guitar/vocals) the trio developed their unique hazy indie sound in the summer after their year 12 year, cumulating in the release of their debut EP ‘Burn After Listening’ in 2021 that launched them into the Melbourne scene.
Since then, Des Cortez have taken Melbourne by storm, releasing a string of beloved singles and regularly playing in front of huge crowds including a recent sold-out single launch in the Espy’s Gershwin room. The band also frequently support larger acts, such as Agung Mango, Summer Thieves, South Summit and The Rions.
Their live sets have been described as intimate and mesmerising due to their high energy as well as catchy rhythm and melodic sections that reflect the nuance of their recordings.
