STONEY HOOP / GEORGE GOLDBERG

Three of Tampa Bay’s most exciting young acts—rappers Mike Escanor and Stoney Hoop (pictured) and producer-singer NDO—are backed by live bands when Ybor City’s new Dojo Sounds hosts this concert where Krystins Kitchen pops up to sling Hennessy Wings while a barber does shape ups on your fucked up hair.

Afroblues: Mike Escanor w/NDO/Stoney Hoop/Patrick Hughes/Jay Browne/Taylor Moon/Vern Sr./Deaudrick Williams. Fri. Feb. 21, 8 p.m. $10. The Dojo, Ybor City. INFO
