Automatic Lovetter tonight in St. Pete
September 5th, 2008 by Wade Tatangelo in News
Hometown pop punk heroine Juliet Simms (pictured) and her band Automatic Loveletter headline a killer lineup tonight at the State Theatre in St. Petersburg. Yeah, Simms is young, pretty and dressed to impress the Hot Topic set, but she also has a powerful, expressive voice and pens thoughtful lyrics that reach beyond high school hallways.

Tonight is also Rebekah Pulley’s CD release show at Skipper’s Smokehouse in Tampa. Newly nationally signed blues man Damon Fowler plays the same venue Saturday. On Wednesday, Chris Isaak drops by Ruth Eckerd Hall to do some heavy crooning. Read about these acts and more in Music Week.
Mark your calendars: Tampa alt-rock quartet The Beauvilles unveil their full-length debut Whispering Sin with a gig Thurs., Sept. 11 at Crowbar, Ybor City. I sat down recently with frontman Shawn Kyle Beauville for this week’s music feature, “The Beauvilles go over to the dark side.” And apologies to Beauville guitarist Christopher Tolan, who was misidentified in the original version of the story. The error has been corrected.
