Fre$h P tops lineup for Tampa’s first ‘Sol Exhibit’ concert and market of the new year

If Shelby Sol’s new year’s resolution is to help her local music family while putting on an awesome event, she’s already succeeding.

The second installment of the singer-songwriter’s Sol Exhibit happens on Jan. 1—back at Hooch and Hive where the first one happened in October—and is focused on a new set of Tampa Bay talent to share their music and inspirations behind it. Best of the Bay-winning performer Fre$h P, “Isolated” emcee Jafarlee and producer/rapper/vocalist J.Walt are the focus of Saturday’s show in the West River district.

Emjay Meraki is back to play host, with DJ Wally Rios and The Set on the decks providing in-between and all-around music.
