Monallo's new album release "Moon And Machine" April 10, 7 pm. PG Woman's Club, 118 Sullivan St, PG,FL
2026-04-10 19:00 - 21:30 | Punta Gorda Woman’s Club Building, 118 Sullivan Street, Punta Gorda, Florida, 33950, United States
Moon and Machine, a soulful soundtrack for wanderers, dreamers and horizon-chasers.
Moon and Machine is a luminous, groove driven album that feels like a postcard from the edge of escape – where crashing waves meet restless ambition, and modern life collides with the call of the horizon. These songs represent a passion for the ocean, for relaxation, for escaping the troubles of modern life and seeing all the amazing places the world has to offer. “It’s about passing that message to those who feel trapped in their daily routine – and to future generations. “Let’s get out there and chase the horizon.”
Backing frontman, James Drakes is a world class rhythm section that gives Monallo its unmistakable live energy:
Veteran drummer/percussionist Alan Jax Bowers, whose credits include working with the Coral Reefer Band, Earth, Wind and Fire, Tedeschi Trucks Band, Matchbox Twenty, Kenny Rogers and many more.
And Sydney-born guitarist Pete “Pirate Pete” Robertson, with over 30 years of touring and recording experience alongside artists connected to AC/DC, Aerosmith, Joan Jett’s Band, The Cult and beyond.
Together, they deliver a sound that blends alternative folk-rock warmth with beach-soaked grooves, Americana storytelling and a touch of island swing.
At its heart, Moon and Machine is about contrast – the organic and the mechanical, the tides and the traffic, the moonlit calm and the daily grind. It’s music for those sitting at a desk with one eye out the window, already halfway to the coast.
Special Guests – Eric Erdrman and Greg Mihaly
Tickets available at www.monallomusic.com/tickets.
Price: General Admission: USD 20.00
Artists: Monallo, James Drakes, Alan Jax Bowers, Pirate Pete Robertson, Eric Erdman, Greg Mihaly

Live Music - Scott Sean White performs April 11, 2026, 5-7pm Punta Gorda History Park, 501 Shreve St
2026-04-11 17:00 - 19:00 | Punta Gorda History Park, 501 Shreve Street, Punta Gorda, Florida, 33950, United States
The Punta Gorda Historical Society is pleased to announce Scott Sean White will perform in concert in the Punta Gorda History Park, 501 Shreve St on Saturday, April 11 from 5 – 7 pm. Tickets are $20 per person at the gate, cash only. Bring your chair, your favorite beverage and snacks if you like. The Hot Dog Lady will be on site.
Some songwriters spend precious time struggling to find their truth and make it rhyme. Others just pick up their guitar and tell it. Scott Sean White is one of the others. Today, he makes his home these days in Poetry, Texas – a perfectly named little town for a songwriters songwriter.
He is a storyteller, both in his songs and the moments in between songs, laying out his life experience – his faith and struggles – and intertwining it all with his craft. His live show is starkly honest, transparent, and eye-opening – full of laughter and probably a few (good) tears, too.
Several of his songs have been recorded by Cody Johnson – God Bless the Boy, Made a Home and Over Missing You as well as singer, Bryan Martin – Years in the Making, Poets and Old Souls and Wishbone
Scotts own albums Call it Even in 2021and Even Better on the Bad Days in 2024 were claimed by critics to be contenders for Album of the Year.

Supermarket
2026-04-15 10:00 - 2026-04-30 18:00 | Bailey Contemporary Arts Center, 41 Northeast 1st Street, Pompano Beach, Florida, 33060, United States
SUPERMARKET examines identity through the tension between the physical and nonphysical. The work questions where humanity resides and how much of it can be accessed through the external alone. When only the surface is offered, a sense of absence emerges, revealing how humanity exists beyond the physical, even as much of daily interaction remains skin-deep. The exhibition includes large-scale portraiture and handmade masks that function as forms of containment and translation. Influenced by the 1970s to 1990s alternative, club, and queer culture, the work considers how identity forms through repetition, exposure, and the systems we move through daily, implicitly shaping and nourishing us. From this position, Cook steps out of concealment and into authorship.
