Kingsley Reeves III brings a pared down lineup of his party band Aliqua to this no-cover dive bar gig at The Bends where he’ll be joined by avant-rock-ish outfit Chriss, plus DJ sets from New Age Tension, We’re Sweet Girls and a final appearance by Wiggleroom.
There’s no cover to see Aliqua, We’re Sweet Girls and more play The Bends in St. Petersburg on Wednesday, Dec. 31.
Donna The Buffalo In a break from recent tradition, New York jam-scene favorite Donna The Buffalo is not playing its New Year’s Eve show under the Skipperdome in Tampa. This could very well be many local fans’ first time seeing frontwoman Tara Nevins & co. in a different setting, which is fitting because it’s a first that is on the mind of the accordion player, who recently told CL about the best gig she ever saw. “…one of the most influential concerts was the first time seeing Preston Frank and his family band play Zydeco in Soileau, Louisiana,” she said. “I came home and immediately bought an accordion and that started a very important chapter in both mine and Donna The Buffalo’s musical evolution.” Wednesday, Dec. 31. 8 p.m. $44 & up. Bilheimer Capitol Theatre, Clearwater
More New Year’s Eve and New Year’s Day concerts happening in Tampa Bay
