Will Quinlan w/Kaleigh Baker/Adam Randall For years, Tampa songwriter Will Quinlan’s been more-or-less the king of folky melancholia, but on a new song, “Radio Life,” he taps into a little bit of power-pop for an anthem that’ll please fans of both The Kinks and Hollies alike. He plays a free show at this equally-loved Seminole Heights watering hole that’s encouraging attendees to wear their best Quinlan attire (flannel, jeans, glasses and a hat). Powerhouse vocalist, and world-class whistler, songwriter Kaleigh Baker opens the show along with Adam Randall.
