It’s about to be hotter than the inside of satan’s butthole outside, so Tampa’s beloved streetcar concert series is taking the summer off.

To close out the 2023-24 season, TECO and Gasparilla Music Festival have tapped Whataboutmomma to ride the rails for a couple hours, giving riders a dose of the band’s indie-rock, which is borne of members’ loves of beat production from the likes of Mr. Carmack and Kaytranada, rock, and all the skill members picked up studying jazz at Blake High School and then schools like Berklee and Florida A&M.

While the concert travels the length of the streetcar’s 2.7-mile route, your best bet for a guaranteed seat is to catch the trolley at station no. 1 near Centennial Park in Ybor City before departure at 6 p.m.

There’s no cover for Streetcar Live with Whataboutmomma happening Friday, May 24 on the TECO Streetcar, which departs from Centennial Park station on E 8th Avenue in between N 19th and N 20th Streets in Ybor City. Subscribe to Creative Loafing newsletters.
