Stuart-based trio Aquaphonics dubs its sound "electro-soul," and indeed, it often uses a funky interplay between the electronic and the organic. As the group's watery name might indicate, there's a lot of bubbling percussion and cresting and receding waves of guitar and keyboard.

In fact, you can consider this show at the Native Florida Tap Room a kind of makeup session for the band's set at the recent Aura Festival in St.

Cloud that was rained out after four songs. To get fans warmed up for dancing, Aquaphonics appear here with Orpheus, a straight-up, contemporary-style ska act from Wisconsin.
