Sharkskin comes out until Aug. 27, and Tampa’s band Acme Jazz Garage will show off its new slick, 12-track album at a no cover, Seminole Heights Sunday Soul Food matinee where the outfit welcomes pop and soul songwriter-singer Shelby Sol to the stage.
The band has refined its sound over the last 10 years but took a risk and opened up its aesthetic and approach as it welcomed a host of collaborators including Sol and the Imperial Polk Horns who all recorded just a few miles away Sulphur Springs’ historic Springs Theatre. Reservations and masks are strongly encouraged.
Try Sharkskin on by listening below.
