King Britt, who plays Paper Crane in St. Petersburg, Florida on February 2, 2019.

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.

King Britt w/Selekta Chang/Austen van der Bleek/Boomerang. Sat. Feb. 2, 10 p.m. $15-$20.Paper Crane, 910 5th Ave. N. St. Petersburg. openhouseconspiracy.com.
