Pablo Cruise with Atlanta Rhythm Section and Orleans

Atlanta Rhythm Section, from Doraville, Georgia, was a Southern rock band known for their radio-friendly style. They scored hits with "So Into You" and "Imaginary Lover." Managed by Buddy Buie, they reached their peak with the 1978 album Champagne Jam. The group performed at the White House and collaborated with artists like Travis Tritt and Wynonna Judd.

Orleans, formed in New York in 1972, are known for hits like "Still the One" and "Dance with Me." With founders John Hall, Larry Hoppen, and Wells Kelly, they achieved success on the Asylum label. After Hall's 1977 departure, Orleans saw further change but hit again with "Love Takes Time." Hall supported the antinuclear movement and joined MUSE, organizing No Nukes concerts with Jackson Browne and others. Hall returned to Orleans before his political career, winning a U.S. Congress seat in 2006. The band endured tragedies, including Kelly's and Larry Hoppen's passing.

Multi-platinum Bay Area pop/rock band Pablo Cruise, formed in 1973, is known for hits like "Whatcha Gonna Do?" and "Love Will Find a Way." Founders David Jenkins and Cory Lerios lead the group, featuring new talents Robbie Wyckoff, Sergio Gonzalez, and Larry Antonino. After 40 years, they released "Breathe" in 2020, retaining their signature upbeat sound.
