In the “Coming For You” video, Matthew Lowry’s Flamingo County Players compete in some kind of backyard olympic games.

The ~~Orlando~~ Lakeland outfit could make a medal stand in a rawk ranking though, all on the strength of the unit’s brawny, good-time riffs from the band’s latest, Flamingo County, recorded in Lakeland at Aaron Marsh’s Vanguard Room.The record is the perfect soundtrack for smoking weed with your friends, or growing your hair out. It’s also got space for listeners to reflect on family and what it means.

Lowry’s band is on a weekender that includes a hometown stop at the Norsekorea 13th anniversary show, plus this one alongside City Beautiful, emo band Here Here and Lakeland grunge-rock outfit Marrison.

Tickets to see Matthew Lowry and friends play Hooch and Hive (1001 W Cass St.) on Friday, Jan. 26 run for $12.
