Summer Salt

Self-described “trop-pop” duo Summer Salt spent last summer opening for The Driver Era, and is now out on a headlining tour promoting one of what feels like a million albums that dropped on May 19.

Campanita is a sentimental, 41-minute eulogy for Matthew Terry’s sister Madeleine, and their cousin, Angelina—both of whom passed away within a year of each other—where he expresses his will to carry on, and remembers nothing but the best times with two of his closest family members.

Tickets to see Summer Salt play Orpheum in Tampa on Thursday, June 1 are still available for $26. Subscribe to Creative Loafing newsletters.
