Easter is apparently a great day for rock shows. Hardcore and metal bands are in Tampa and Bradenton this weekend, and Rough Dreams visits from Knoxville, too.

The quartet plays a melodic, extremely catchy brand of punk-pop that sounds a little like Chuck Ragan or Ben Nichols fronting an emo band.

Low Season is among the Bay area locals opening the show along with New Port Richey’s Send and Delete.

Tickets to see Rough Dreams play The Nest at St. Petersburg Brewing Co. on Sunday, March 21 will be available at the door for $10.
