The art of Nerdcore is alive and well in Tampa, as evidenced by Bay area rapper and Best of the Bay finalist Swell Rell, who often incorporates his love of video games and other niche pop culture interests into his songs.

Swell Rell just dropped his latest single “No More Social Battery” on Bandcamp, an introverted anthem that Larry David would probably appreciate. Expect to hear that track alongside other newer songs like “Darkseid” and “Danny Phantom Goin’ Ghost” at Shuffle's remixed open mic this week.

And when he’s not hosting open mic nights or performing his nerdcore originals in Tampa Heights, he’s probably hosting karaoke at 7venth Sun Brewery or hanging out at Crowbar.

There's no cover to attend Shuffle's remixed open mic night on Tuesday, June 4 from 8 p.m.-11:45 p.m. Subscribe to Creative Loafing newsletters.
