Event Details

Bermuda Float is back!

A tropically inclined, sonic-aquatic odyssey - a garage driven night cruise from which nobody will return the same. Part sunset cruise, part sonic adventure, all jamming boat party, Bermuda Float is just waiting for you to come aboard.


Musical entertainment provided by King Tuff and The UV Race. Many more to be announced!

King Tuff is the brainchild of garage-rocker Kyle Thomas. Known chiefly as King Tuff to the rock-nerd underworld, he has moonlighted in a multitude of bands, such as psych-folk band Feathers, garage punk and Sub Pop affiliated outfit Happy Birthday as well as J Mascis' doom band Witch.

King Tuff's charisma is magnetic; his shows have been likened to cheap-beer-soaked tent revivals, while he combines the stadium-sized guitar licks of Erik Cartwright with the bratty whine of Eric Cartman. King Tuff's solo debut album, Was Dead, was the sort of album most scuzz-loving musicians would incinerate their garages to make! While his latest S/T album won critics over worldwide.

Gracing our shores with his lo-fi garage pop for the first time ever, King Tuff will be a tour that you need to see. Or seek solace. You'll be pining for weeks after they're gone.
