Fans of horror movies and historic Florida yore might want to check out The Baleful Sounds Of Black Valley Moon Vol. 1.

The album finds guitarist Sam Williams and bassist-drummer Dave Kamrath delivering the sounds of ‘60s jazz and surf music with the energy of a punk band. Song titles (“DeSoto Moonrise,” “The Ballad Of Ransom Clark”) on the 12-track effort should pique your interest, so go take a spin with the album on cltampa.com/music and check out the group when it plays the new-ish Ybor location for Red Star Rock Bar.

Switchblade Villain w/Black Valley Moon/Laze Mouth/Johnny Zoom Hi-Fi Show. Sat. Sept. 28, 7 p.m. No cover. Red Star Rock Bar, Ybor City. INFO.
