Los Beach Dogs Bio
OVERALL Classic Rock n Roll
​
Los Beach Dogs started in 2008 with originals Steve Giovenco, George Russell and Rich Rajacich playing on various home patio’s when there was nothing in Loreto Bay except some dirt streets and homeowners with the goal to enjoy life. Tony was soon to join and the band became the heartbeat of Loreto Bay playing for huge crowds and venues ranging from iconic street parties to 500+ attended fundraisers. Steve’s heartbreaking passing (2015), Ruben & Tim joining in, Chucho and Adolfo’s time with the band, George and Rich’s move back to the States (2014 & 2019 respectively) as well as Loran (2018), Balo (2019) and Jill (2019) becoming a part of the family all shows Los Beach Dogs changing/evolving as the years go by. Today finds the group as strong as ever with an incredible positive energy & great music whenever and wherever they play! Don’t miss being a part of music with LOS BEACH DOGS. Check their Facebook page and nopolonews.com for upcoming gigs in Loreto and Loreto Bay.
