New Granada Presents...

"Any kid who tells on another kid is a dead kid"

About Me

New Granada Presents... is a monthly series of shows in conjunction w/ the New World Brewery in Ybor City (Tampa), FL focusing solely on local and/or regional bands/acts, including, but not limited to the Bay Area/Central Florida's "hot new bands" as well as the oft disregarded and under-appreciated "newbies". Out-of-state and touring bands are more than welcome to get in touch for show prospects. If we can't help, we will direct you to the proper people (*see info at the bottom).
All shows are $5.00 starting at 10:00. At no time, except for special circumstances, will New Granada have more than 3 bands on a show. This gives these bands the attention they deserve and a chance to play and be paid as equals. After all, it's our own local and regional bands that keep the Tampa Independent music scene alive....or at least barely breathing, at times. haha.
