October 21, 2024 – Media MentionGreenberg Glusker's band, The Gee Gees, was highlighted in the Fall 2024 edition of The Primerus Paradigm for their participation at the 13th Annual Law Rocks Los Angeles competition. Band members include Ricardo Cestero, Graham Fenton, James Hill, Pete Nyquist, Noah Perch-Ahern, Ira Steinberg, and Ryan Webb.
Excerpts:
The audience screams and hollers and the in-house band from the law firm Greenberg Glusker hits the opening chords of “The Chain” by Fleetwood Mac. At the front of the stage, lead guitarist and entertainment attorney Ricardo Cestero overhears someone in the audience say, “Are they really going to pull this off?”
From the confident, smooth harmonies struck in the first lyrics by Graham Fenton, Ryan Webb, and Linda Debella, it is immediately evident that yes, The Gee Gees are going to “pull this off.”
“Our hope was that we were going to be the best band,” says Cestero, the band’s de facto leader who has performed in cover bands around Los Angeles for decades. “That was the goal. To just go out there and put on the best show.”
“To get a chance to play at the Whisky in front of that crowd was nothing short of surreal,” says drummer Pete Nyquist, who is chair of the firm’s Environmental Practice Group and a founding member of the band. “What greater dream is there than to be a rocker, get up on stage, and perform?”
