California Rockers Pablo Cruise in Concert at Jergel’s (Mon., 8/14/23)

When fans asked who Pablo was, members of the soft rock group Pablo Cruise would respond, “He’s the guy in the middle.” Truthfully, there was no Pablo or even a Cruise. Instead, there was David Jenkins, Cory Lerios, Steve Price, and the late bassist Bud Cockrell. Jenkins (guitar and vocals) and Lerios (keyboards and vocals) now play with Larry Antonino (bass), Sergio Gonzalez (drums and percussion) and Robbie Wyckoff (vocals and percussion). The group will bring hits such as “A Place in the Sun,” “Atlanta June,” and “Whatcha Gonna Do?” to Jergel’s Rhythm Grille. Even if you have never heard Pablo Cruise’s blend of California guitar, piano, and contemplative lyrics, you have probably at least heard Lerios’s solo work. Lerios has scored several films and television shows, including NBC’s” Baywatch.” After calling it quits in 1986, Pablo Cruise returned in 2004, and the band has been touring successfully ever since. 8 p.m. 285 Northgate Dr., Warrendale.
