Ms. Rainey Wetnight would like to propose a bargain with the Universe. For every destructive, senseless disaster like Hurricanes Harvey and Irma, there has to be at least one work of art – especially musical – released to lift our spirits twice as much as they were lowered during said natural disaster. It’s a perfect time to pay tribute to a band that encapsulates all that is Florida: Tucci, from Sarasota, and their latest album Olivia.
The Sarasota Sky Bar is the place to be on Friday, September 1. Start your holiday weekend off right and jump in head first into some live blues-rock music. This double-bill of music is guaranteed to have something for everyone. There will not be a disappointed face in the crowd.
The Tucci band continues on the path set by its previous incarnation, The Toler-Tucci Band, which featured Dan Toler and recorded the acclaimed CD, Doc’s Hideaway, in 2012. Dan Toler was a longtime friend and mentor to the band, and his spirit informs the music. Toler passed away in early 2013 after a long battle with ALS.
