The Palm Desert Scene is just one name to give them: the group of closely related bands and musicians around bands like Kyuss, Queens of the Stone Age and Masters of Reality. It's an evergrowing family of people who play in a lot of different bands together.

One remarkable project within this scene are the Desert Sessions, in which Josh Homme invites a bunch of musicians to Rancho de la Luna, a studio in the desert, where they write, rehearse and record some 10 songs in one week's time. The Desert Sessions series has by now reached up to volume 10.
