The very popular Extra Large entertained July 14 in what everyone hopes ill be a post-COVID year.
“It was packed and one of the most memorable concerts in the last decade,” said Kelly Barreto, who shared these photos. “Extra Large came out of retirement and brought much joy and love to their audience!”
Barreto is the administrative assistant for the Capitola Arts & Cultural Commission, which oversees the Twilight Concerts, Sunday Art at the Beach on Aug. 1 and 15, and Movies at the Beach on two Fridays, featuring “Doolittle” Sept. 10 and “Frozen 2” Sept. 17.
