Who else but hosts Wendy Stuart and Tym Moss could “spill the tea” on their weekly show “If These Walls Could Talk” live from Pangea Restaurant on the Lower Eastside of NYC, with their unique style of honest, and emotional interviews, sharing the fascinating backstory of celebrities, entertainers, recording artists, writers and artists and bringing their audience along for a fantastic ride.
Zecca Esquibel will be a featured guest on “If These Walls Could Talk” with hosts Wendy Stuart and Tym Moss on Wednesday, October 16th, 2024 at 2 PM ET live from the infamous Pangea Restaurant.
Wendy Stuart is an author, celebrity interviewer, model, filmmaker and along with If These Walls Could Talk she hosts TriVersity Talk, a weekly web series with featured guests discussing their lives, activism and pressing issues in the LGBTQ Community.
Tym Moss is a popular NYC singer, actor, and radio/tv host who recently starred in the hit indie film “JUNK” to critical acclaim.

Zecca Esquibel was the keyboard player in the Cherry Vanilla band in early 1977, which also included Sting, Stewart Copeland and Louie Lepore.
Born in São Paulo, Brazil, composer, producer and arranger Zecca Esquibel’s first stage performance on piano was at Peabody Preparatory in Baltimore, Maryland at the age of 7. He spent his childhood and teens winning a daunting schedule of classical piano competitions until, inspired at Woodstock, he left home at 18 to become a rock musician. At the age of 23, in New York city, he received rave reviews for his performance in the landmark Off-Off-Broadway Gay musical “Lovers” in his basement loft on Church St. (The Basement Theater). KISS rehearsed their first National Tour there on alternate nights. Immediately after, he single-handedly founded a 16 floor live-in loft and rehearsal studio complex called The Music Building at 251 W 30th St. in Manhattan’s Garment District, which functioned for 40 years! Soon, Zecca was playing his first arena’s and colosseums with The Jimmy Castor Bunch (RCA). Disgusted with off-stage behavior, Zecca complained to his best friend, the late Sean Delaney (often called “the fifth KISS”), and Sean arranged an audition with Bowie alum Cherry Vanilla. Miles Copeland saw them in New York and invited Cherry, Zecca, and Cherry‘s new love, guitarist Louie Lepore, to come to London offering members of The Police to fill in as the missing musicians. The rest is well covered in Sting‘s “Broken Music“.
After 18 months of touring and recording in the US and Europe with Cherry Vanilla (RCA London), Zecca returned to New York and wrote the music for his own band GET WET (Boardwalk Records).His single “Just So Lonely” rose to #39 in Billboard’s Pop Chart and Top 10 overseas.
Zecca joined “downtown” performance artist John Kelly in 1994‘s “Far Cry From Bliss” (Danspace, NY), and he has accompanied Mr. Kelly in recitals as well as all four of his Joni Mitchell shows touring the US and Europe. Appearing in Drag as an 85 year old Georgia O’Keefe beside Kelly as Mitchell, they were the opening act for parts of Natalie Merchant’s 1999 Ophelia World Tour. He also played keys for blues legend Garland Jeffreys’ US and Canada tours from 2002 to 2007.
In 2019, Kelly and Zecca revived their Joni shows “sans perruque” (out of Drag) to sold out crowds in a residency at Joe’s Pub (Public Theater). In April, 2024, Zecca began performing with Penny Arcade in her “Art of Becoming”, again at Joe’s Pub.
