Hailing from Nashville, Thelma and the Sleaze is no stranger to Tampa Bay, having played several shows here in the past couple years.

The independent all-woman rock band is on tour behind its latest album Holey Water, but needs fans’ support to fund a new tour van so frontwoman Lauren “LG” Gilbert can stay on the road spreading the sapphic southern sleaze-rock gospel.

Tickets to see Thelma and the Sleaze play the Music Hall at New World Brewery in Tampa on Wednesday, Feb. 21 are still available for $12.
