Severed+Said, which plays The Bends in St. Petersburg, Florida on Sept. 9, 2024.

John Touchton is a “synthesist” raised in the Pentecostal church who can hypnotize listeners with his special brand of Floridian electro that’s evolved into a trio of singles from a forthcoming album, End Time Loop.

Look for Touchton, better known as Severed+Said, to play tracks from the the cinematic, drone-driven, ambient and head-rocking outing at this no-cover show supported by local producers of eco-techno (Akasha System), ambient IDM (Justin Depth) and playful electro-pop (Ovan Odero).

There's no cover to see Severed+Said play The Bends in St. Petersburg on Sunday, Sept. 8.
