Santa Cruz band Slow Gherkin‘s members might be in their late 40s and early 50s but that doesn’t mean they can’t pick it up where they left off.
KPCR 92.9FM station manager Daniel Roberts was in awe, seeing one of his favorite bands from his teenage years play live in the radio station.
The band was promoting their Aug. 29 Event Santa Cruz Midtown Fridays Summer Block Party reunion performance.

Two of Slow Gherkin’s founders, A.J. Marquez and James Rickman, even switched lead vocals during the studio session.
The band says this Friday’s MIdtown Summer Block Party isn’t a true reunion because they never broke up and will always be friends.

Meanwhile, just across North Santa Cruz Avenue, retailer East Kennedy held its Send Off Soiree, as it shutters its physical location to focus on its online business.
