Alabama metal band Erra plays Orpheum’s new Tampa location this weekend

You’d think that a metalcore band from Alabama would pop into Florida all the time.

While this is true for Erra, it’s been three years since a Bay area show, two of which went down at the since-shuttered Ybor City location of Orpheum in 2019.

Longtime guitarist Sean Price respectfully withdrew from the band behind “Eye of God” earlier this year, after a 10-year tenure, so the new Orpheum stage may look a bit naked at this show set for Sunday, July 17, one of the first shows at venue’s new location.
Also on the bill for this show will be Invent, Animate, as well as Alpha Wolf, and Lost Trees.
