Pablo Cruise at Hard Rock Live Sacramento
If you get an opportunity to see Pablo Cruise live, don’t pass it up... IT’S GOOD TO BE LIVE!

In 1975, Pablo Cruise released its first A&M album, simply entitled Pablo Cruise. The album cover was shot in the tropical gardens of San Francisco’s Golden Gate Park and featured a huge gorilla standing front and center. The band—David Jenkins (guitars, vocals), Cory Lerios (keyboards, vocals), Bud Cockrell (bass, vocals), and Steve Price (drums, percussion)—were nowhere in sight. At that point, there was a bit of mystique surrounding Pablo Cruise. When asked what Pablo Cruise meant, the well-rehearsed answer went something like this: “‘Pablo’ represents an honest, real, down to- earth individual, and ‘Cruise’ depicts his fun-loving, easy-going attitude towards life.” In essence, that’s what Pablo Cruise’s music is all about: honest, real, down-to-earth vocals, accompanied by fun yet elegant, infectious grooves. Hearing Pablo Cruise on record is one thing, but experiencing the band live is an exhilarating event!
Fast forward 20 years... In 2005, a reunited Pablo Cruise picked up where they left off, and today the band performs all over the U.S. and Canada, enjoying it more than ever. Since getting back together, they have released two live CDs and a DVD through Sony Music, documenting their exceptional live shows. During the pandemic, the band wrote and produced a new single (through Sony) entitled “Breathe,” which received considerable critical acclaim! One of the great things about playing shows after all these years is that primary songwriters David Jenkins and Cory Lerios are still on board! Cory says, “Going out and playing shows these days gives us the opportunity to not only pay tribute to ourtimeless repertoire but also to see old friends and fans from back in the day, as well as gain a whole new audience!” Today, Pablo Cruise is bringing more energy and excitement to the stage than ever before, and with the addition of Larry Antonino (bass, vocals), Robbie Wyckoff (vocals, percussion), and Sergio Gonzalez (drums, percussion), the band has never sounded better!
