Next month, ​​girls and non-binary youth will spend a week at St. Petersburg’s Allendale United Methodist Church for Girls Rock Camp (GRC St. Pete).

The camp culminates in a showcase at Jannus Live, but on Saturday in St. Petersburg, some of Tampa Bay’s loudest bands (death metal, hardcore, screamo and shoegaze are all represented on the bill) hit the old VFW on Central Avenue to destroy your hearing and also raise money so GRC St. Pete can make camp as fun, productive and meaningful as possible.
