Ronnie Dee is an effervescent, immensely-talented family man, so it’s no surprise to see him bringing his love for music and community together for a show where mom gets a free beer or wine to help grease up the dancing shoes, which will get a heavy workout thanks to the horn-driven hits that Dee (son of Joey Dee) and his band will play.

“I lost my mother to cancer and miss her every day. Every damn day. This will help my usual shitty mother’s day vibe turn around to something more positive, as gigging is therapeutic for me,” Ronnie told Creative Loafing Tampa Bay. “I’m gonna hug every mom in the place.”

Tickets for Ronnie Dee and the Superstars’ Motherfunkers Ball at Bayboro Brewing Co. in St. Petersburg on Sunday, May 12 are still available and start at $8.
