✔️= Critic's Pick
There's a football game on TV tonight, but let's face it: not everyone likes sportsball.
Thankfully, Seminole Heights is here with a trio of shows — fuzz rock at Microgroove, experimental and noise sounds at the Legion, Americana with the Juke Joint Kings at Ella's — while the folks closer to the Gulf of Mexico get to enjoy some classical, student-led and funk sounds.
See your Super Bowl LII alternatives below.
✔️ Flux Hymns w/Do Nothing/Handmade, Amigo/Awkward Age Super Bowl, schmuper bowl. Ditch the battle of dickbag sports cities and enjoy some awkward, horny pop music from Orlando’s Handmade, Amigo (seriously, the title track on the brand new For The Living Ones EP is giddy power-pop gold). Tallahassee fuzz-rock band Do Nothing brings its brand new Do Something cassette to the party where two locals — Flux Hymns and Awkward Age — play support. (Microgroove, Tampa) INFO
