About the host
Hosted by James (Jamie) Howarth
Veteran recording engineer/producer, with a love of all things modern.
Why they chose this property
After some 10 years attending the Coachella Festival and staying in Palm Springs for vacations the area's allure was irresistible.
What makes this property unique
When we saw the unique artwork built-in to the property, the gorgeous mountain views from the original kidney shaped pool, we had to have it. It's a very happy and comfortable somewhat zany but eminently practical home.
