The Supervillains
The Florida-bred swamp rockers have been bending genres, partying hard, touring the world, and leaving tales of joy and destruction in their wake. Founded by high-school buddies and co-lead vocalists Dominic Maresco (drums) and Scott "Skart" Suldo (guitars), the Supervillains' patented harmonies and hooks have permeated through many scenes while managing to stay true to their collective roots. Huge, ground-moving bass lines provided by Daniel Grundorf with multi-instrumental solos and melodies from Tom "T-Rex" Moulton compliment the combo's penchant for formulating unique arrangements, drawing from a wide range of influences. Southern vocal harmonies accompany undeniable reggae beats, tasty ska rhythms, and all-out punk rock insanity from a band that truly resembles the cultural melting pot of their home state.
"Although the band themselves have grown beyond the conventional sound of ska, I could see no better example of true scholars of this style of music and this culture," BERKLEE GROOVE (Berklee College of Music - Boston, MA).
"The Supervillains are easily one of the most progressive bands in the scene..." ThePier.org
From Orlando, FL across to Marco Islando, FL, The Sheffield Crew is no stranger to creating a following. Hailing from Marco Island, one of the few inhabited stretches of sand in Florida's 10,000 Islands, The Sheffield Crew explodes with a style all their own. Combining spitfire hip-hop, infectious island rhythms, as well as hard-driving rock and bouncy ska, The Crew are making a strong name for themselves within Florida's growing Reggae/Rock scene. Comprised of the fiery Chris Jacobs on vocals, the incomparable Danny "Splenda" Iaconelli on guitar and vocals, bong-rattling bassist Steve Dirt, and hard hitting drummer Shaun Jacobs, this collection of home-grown and technically trained musicians have already gained a devoted, often fanatical Florida fanbase.
Opening the night off will be two local reggae/rock bands from Bradenton, FL, The Hobies, and Overhead Glass.
With a night full of Florida's finest artists, and the first Objective Shift Production, this is sure to be an event to go down in Jake's Tavern history. With beer pong, Fireball Whisky, and an 1800 Tequila, what else can you ask for?
