Meet Carl Giammarese, founding member, lead singer, guitarist, songwriter, and driving force behind The Buckinghams.

From the chart-topping #1 hit "Kind of a Drag" to classics like "Don't You Care," "Mercy, Mercy, Mercy," and "Hey Baby (They're Playing Our Song)," Carl helped define the sound of the 1960s. More than six decades later, he's still doing what he loves.

Now in his seventies, Carl continues touring nationwide, writing and recording new music, managing the band, and greeting fans after every show. He's the only Buckingham to have appeared on stage for every performance in the band's 60-year history – a remarkable testament to his passion, perseverance, and love of making music. For Carl, the glory days aren't behind him – they're still playing.

Proof that age is just a number! Meet 82-year-old Richard Huffman. While most people are slowing down in their 80s, Richard is literally flying through the air.

He fell in love with the trapeze as a kid, but didn't seriously pursue it until his 60s. In his 70s, he leveled up to the aerial sling—and he hasn't looked back since. What he does is mind-bending for any age, but at 82? It's pure inspiration.

Meet Charlie and Susan—our two-for-one feature on Old People Rock.

Together since the late 1960s, Susan Rubin and Charlie Deglman have spent a lifetime using creativity as a form of resistance. From protesting the Vietnam War to challenging the social norms of their generation, they've never been afraid to question the world around them.

Susan has built an extraordinary career as an actor, director, dancer, filmmaker, author, and playwright. Charlie, a Harvard graduate, is a professional musician, actor, author, and college professor who has recently completed a trilogy of novels set in the 1960s and '70s.

Their story is a reminder that curiosity, creativity, and conviction don't fade with age—they only grow stronger.

Meet Danny Grenier, a true powerhouse in the music scene. Over his career, he's played guitar alongside rock icons like Glenn Frey and Joe Walsh. Today, at 73, Danny is still performing locally across Los Angeles and Santa Barbara. For him, it's never been about stopping – it's about a lifelong passion for music and the people who make it.

At nearly 75, Kerri Acheson is having the time of her life. A former marketing and public relations professor at Northwestern and USC, she has spent decades writing and publishing academic work. She has co-authored one book, ghostwritten another, and is now helping launch a new public speaking and presentation training firm in New York City.

What makes her accomplishments even more remarkable is that they come 25 years after she suffered a severe brain injury. As Kerri puts it, "The brain cannot regenerate new cells, but it can find new pathways." In her case, it certainly has. And she's not slowing down. Finding retirement a little too quiet, Kerri recently discovered a new passion—and success—in voice acting and narration. At 74, she continues to reinvent herself, proving that curiosity, resilience, and creativity have no age limit.

Along the way, Bob endured 44 surgeries spanning more than seven decades—from his first operation at age one in 1951 to his most recent in December 2025. Through it all, he has never lost faith in himself or in what he is capable of accomplishing.
