✔️=Critic's Pick
Hoodrich Pablo Juan He’s often mentioned with contemporaries like Zah Sosaa, Young Nudy and GlokkNine when it comes to new, hot names in hip-hop, so expect the club to be full when East Atlanta rapper Hoodrich Pablo Juan plays a late-night set in Carrollwood. (Whiskey North, Tampa) INFO
✔️ The Boats w/Prescribed Fire/Bertos The Boats have enjoyed a return after 10 years away, and the band will be joined by members of other old-school Bay area bands who’ve created new punk-leaning bands (Bertos, featuring members of Vaginasore Jr. and Clarimel; Prescribed Fire, featuring members of the Tim Version and Down By Law) for this free and boozy dive bar show. (The Hub, Tampa) INFO
Klimchak w/Thomas Milovac/Elizabeth A. Baker Klimchak just played a support set at the venue less than two weeks ago (the tinkerer and composer also headlined SHAMc in April 2018), but he’s back again to join one of CL’s favorite artists (composer Elizabeth A. Baker) and Orlando bassist, composer and improviser Thomas Milovac for yet another way-left-of-center experimental show. (Safety Harbor Art and Music Center, Safety Harbor) INFO
Supernova w/Felp/Vinsolo Emiliano Nencioni and Giacomo Godi are classically trained musicians, but the Italian production duo has dealt in house, hip-hop, funk and acid-jazz for the last decade. The owners of Lapsus Music, Blackboard and Downtown Underground head below street level on Saturday for this basement set at Ichicoro in St. Petersburg. Felipe Zamudio (Felp) and Vinny Troise (Vinsolo) open the show. (Ichicoro ANE at Station House, St. Petersburg) INFO
Localtopia w/Blackbird Morning/Someday Honey/Danifield/Rebekah Pulley and the Reluctant Prophets/Lounge Cat/Mountain Holler You wouldn’t expect Keep St. Petersburg Local’s big celebration of all things St. Petersburg to not have a soundtrack, right? The bill revolves around Bay area folk scene matriarch Rebekah Pulley (12 p.m.), but also includes artists representing many different colors from the Sunshine City’s folk and Americana spectrum. Tunes kick off at 10:15 a.m. with Mountain Holler and end at 5 p.m. after Someday Honey leaves the stage. (Williams Park, St. Petersburg) INFO
✔️ Ronnie Spector and the Ronettes An icon of the 1960s comes to Clearwater to show fans what rising above abuse looks and sounds like. Gabe interviewed Ronnie, and you can read the Q&A here. (Capitol Theatre, Clearwater) INFO
✔️ King Britt w/Selekta Chang/Austen van der Bleek/Boomerang Every city should have its own King Britt. The 50-year-old Philadelphia producer, DJ and Digable Planets alum has worked with myriad artists (including harpist Mary Lattimore) and continues to build bridges across scenes (he’s worked with rappers, done scoring work and dipped into the avant-garde) and disciplines (Britt’s latest work brought augmented reality murals to the streets of the City of Brotherly Love). This exclusive Florida stop of his Legacy Tour will find Britt DJ-ing a hybrid set that incorporates his many remixes while also highlighting the many milestones of his career on the dance floor. (Paper Crane, St. Petersburg) INFO
