THE MOUNTAIN
MERMAID
The Mermaid is the magnificently restored center-piece of a 1930s-era country club sitting high on a hillside in Topanga Canyon.
MUSICAL
GUESTS
Will Worden
The Texas born, Will Worden has managed to wrangle and tame the west coast country scene over the past two years, leading up to his debut full length LP launch (2/1/25).
Rolling Stone says, ‘his voice intersects Elvis Presley and Gordon Lightfoot’, and across the world he seems to receive the same remark.
