Get ready to skank to the beat on Friday night when Orlando’s Control This! brings Jamaican-style ska, rocksteady and reggae to Hooch and Hive in the West River district near downtown Tampa.
Hometown band Monument (FKA Help! Police!) stays on theme with a stage full of horns and offbeat rhythms, and Victims of Circumstance adds a little more punk into the cocktail (think a little Less Than Jake, or Blink-182 before they got into aliens and making money) being served onstage at this show where admission is 21 and up.
Control This! w/Victims of Circumstance/Monument. Friday, Oct. 8, 8 p.m. $10. Hooch and Hive, Tampa. @hoochandhive on Facebook
