Every Saturday, I cohost “Radio Reverb,” a two-hour, new music program on WMNF 88.5-FM in Tampa. The show features a concert report listing about a dozen of the best Tampa Bay concerts to look out for over the next seven days.
This week’s agenda is marked by two big anniversaries (Microgroove’s 8th, Crowbar’s 13th) plus free shows by Paint Fumes, FayRoy and Hi-Beam plus a can’t miss gig from Laura Stevenson.
Get more info on what we talked about below, and tune in today from 4 p.m.-6 p.m. to hear some of what we’ve written about below. See even more show previews via cltampa.com/music.
