It's a long drive from Miami to Jacksonville for Winterland Music Festival, so South Florida rockers Las Nubes (pronounced as “Loss-Nü-Bess”) will work a break in and headline a free show in Tampa on Friday, Feb. 25.
A show that was slated to happen at The Hub, will now be hosted by The Bricks at 1327 E 7th Ave. in Ybor City. Emo Night headliners typically start around midnight, so make sure you’re nice and amped up before the “lo-fi, fuzz-worshiping” Las Nubes takes the stage.
Emo Night Tampa usually has a DJ set before or after the bands, but this month’s installation will be live music only—with support from St. Pete psych-rockers Liquid Pennies and newly-formed “genre-less” duo Blonde Gentlemen.
Liquid Pennies dropped its full-length LP Distant Dawn just last year, while Blonde Gentlemen has released a slew of singles over the past two years, including its most recent song “Simulator,” a percussion-heavy electronic-indie track.
Our southern neighbor is no stranger to Tampa Bay, as Las Nubes has played various venues in the area including Lucky You Tattoo and Crowbar in 2019—the same year the shredders performed Iggy Pop’s “I Wanna Be Your Dog” onstage with him in Miami (which can be seen at 1:06:28 of this YouTube video.)
Other dates on Las Nubes’ upcoming Florida mini-tour include Orlando on Feb. 24 and Tallahassee on Feb. 26.
This month’s Emo Night is free—as always—and 21+ because of the bar venue. For more information as the show nears closer, follow Emo Night Tampa at @emo_night_tampa on Instagram.
