Rachel Santa Cruz is an undeniable vocal force that has enriched the music culture of the Central Coast for over a decade. Performing with her father and top-notch bands, being surrounded by the finest musicians in the county, has provided her with a profound musical background that is indicative of her talent. 

In 2024, she was introduced to guitarist Hunter Takao Nakazono and his band the Electric Lavender Train. The two found kinship and chemistry through harmony and musicianship. They bring the spirit of soul, folk and rock’n’roll to life with their euphonic blend and cathartic performance. At Live Oak they will perform in their duo incarnation, Electric Lavender.

The Electric Lavender Train can be found performing all over the state and is debuting new music this year. Take a ride.
