Infinite Third w/Grandeur and Delusions/Mountain Holler Billy Mays III made it back home from yet another tour (does the guy ever stay home?), and to celebrate the ambient-experiemental composer is switching his routine up with a Tampa show alongside the soothing folk-croon of Mark Etherington (Mountain Holler) and a newer Tampa band, Grandeur and Delusions. This free show starts late (10 p.m.) and should pair nicely with the buzz you’ll earn at this popular Seminole Heights watering hole. (Mermaid Tavern, Tampa) INFO
✔️ Ol’ Dirty Sundays w/DJ Mister Cee/DJ Casper/DJ Fader Dig through the credits on albums by the Notorious B.I.G. or Big Daddy Kane and you’ll find DJ Mister Cee’s name (he was born Calvin Lebrun). The Brooklynite brings more than three decades of experience to Ol’ Dirty Sundays, and it’s a shame that he can’t tell stories while spinning because Mister Cee — whose life has included a long stint at world-renowned NYC radio station Hot 97 — is as integral to hip-hop as Jay-Z. (Crowbar, Ybor City) INFO
HER Sundays Launch w/Shevonne/Amanda Lynn/Talli Hooch and Hive is settling into a Cass Street spot that was previously untamed, and the University of Tampa area hangout is testing live music out with this all-girls lineup of Sunday songwriters. (Hooch and Hive, Tampa) INFO
