The Alex Lucero Band
Experience world-class blues, dinner, and drinks — all in one intimate setting.
The Alex Lucero Band has opened for Michael McDonald, Chaka Khan and Pablo Cruise, and Lookout Santa Cruz hears in Alex's voice a touch of Al Green and a shade of Van Morrison. Raised in Oakdale in the Central Valley and now rooted in Santa Cruz, Lucero grew up on Al Green, Marvin Gaye, Otis Redding and Sam Cooke, and he has turned that soul into a run of independent albums, including Dotted Line and Opportunity, with wife Justina Lucero on bass. When the pandemic shut the clubs, the band livestreamed sets from empty rooms and played relief shows for CZU fire families. Two early Sunday sets in an intimate room. Grab a table before it fills.

Alex Lucero came up through musical theater in Oakdale before soul took over, then built his following one room at a time: a Sunday residency at Felton Music Hall, Mondays at the Sand Bar in Capitola, and livestreams from shuttered Santa Cruz County venues when the pandemic hit. In 2025 the band took the songs national on a tour behind the single Long As You Like. They call it country soul.
