In Pet Lizard, Kirsten Clauser plays bass for what might be Tampa’s best pop-punk band. This weekend, she also plays curator for an all-star rock and roll show where proceeds go to Equality Florida and St. Pete’s Queer Expressions.
“This is a direct response to @flgovrondesantis passing extreme legislation deeply affecting the LQBTQIA+ community,” Clauser wrote on social media.
Banjo-strummin’ folkie The Wayfarin Leo Rodger is on the bill along with noisy whorecore band Superbitch, riveting alt-pop outfit Sorry Barb, Clauser’s Pet Lizard, Lakeland post-punk duo Dagger, and experimental rock quartet The Tilt.
Tickets to the Pride Benefit Show at St. Petersburg’s Floridian Social on Friday, June 16 are $10.
