Come see us in the beautiful courtyard of the Ringling Museum!!!

Ringling Underground – March 5 | 8–11 PM
Get ready, Sarasota! 🎶 Join us at Ringling Underground on March 5 from 8–11 PM for a night of live music, art, and electric energy. Our opening local act kicks things off right at 8 PM and you do not want to miss this one.
Taking the stage: The Vital Groove
Fronted by J Santi (guitar/vocals) alongside Chris Sussman (bass) and Marcus James (drums), this dynamic trio blends the soulful fire of Stevie Ray Vaughan, the desert-rock swagger of Queens of the Stone Age, and the songwriter spirit of Tom Petty.
Expect fiery blues solos, heavy grooves, hypnotic riffs, and an electrifying performance that brings a modern edge to blues rock. Their raw energy and powerful sound are guaranteed to set the tone for an unforgettable night.
Pull up, bring your crew, and let’s pack the space with love and loud music.
