Friday marks three-years since the death of fabled songwriter John Prine, who was a part-time resident of Gulfport.

His son, Tommy, is headed to St. Pete later this month, but a Safety Harbor paradise for the Americana scene hosts its annual Prine tribute show this weekend, featuring sets from all the best local songwriters including Rebekah Pulley, Adam Randall, Sam Farmer and even Crooked Thumb Brewery owner Kip Kelly.

Beloved Bay area band Have Gun, Will Travel will play a full set after the tribute wraps.
