The Fall of Troy is a musical force that has been pushing the boundaries of math rock since their formation in 2002. Hailing from Mukilteo, Washington, the band first made waves with their 2005 album âDoppelgängerâ, which showcased their signature blend of technical proficiency and raw energy. Over the years, The Fall of Troy has continued to evolve, exploring new sonic territory and challenging the very notions of time and structure. With each new release, they have cemented their place as one of the most innovative and daring bands in the world of math rock.

After a series of indie releases and growing buzz in the Atlanta music scene, Shawn Mullinsâ critical and commercial breakthrough came when 1998 Soulâs Core shot him to fame on the strength of Grammy-nominated No. 1 hit, âLullabyâ followed by AAA/Americana No. 1 hit âBeautiful Wreckâ from 2006âs 9th Ward Pickinâ Parlor. His song, âShimmerâ was used in promotion of the 2000 Summer Olympics in Sydney and was included on the Dawsonâs Creek soundtrack. His co-write âAll in My Headâ from 2008âs Honeydew was featured in episode one of the hit TV sitcom âScrubs.â Mullins also co-wrote the Zac Brown Bandâs No. 1 country tune âToes.â In early 2002, he formed supergroup The Thorns with Matthew Sweet and Pete Droge. âNo Blue Skyâ from the resulting album, is a modern day classic. For the 20th anniversary of his breakthrough album, Shawn revisited the music of Soulâs Core by recording two new versions of the album. He calls this Soulâs Core Revival. This is not a remix or a remaster of the original, but rather brand new recordings with new arrangements of the songs â one album is stripped down solo performances, some on guitar, some on piano and maybe one a cappella and the second is a new studio recording with his full band, Soul Carnival. CAT RIDGEWAY: Recently voted Orlandoâs Best Rock Act and Best Singer/Songwriter three years running, Cat Ridgeway is a dynamic, must-see performer known for soulful vocals, electrifying energy, and undeniable stage presence. Since her independent breakout with Nice to Meet You, sheâs earned âOnes to Watchâ buzz, toured alongside acclaimed artists like Houndmouth and Amanda Shires, and shared stages with major names including Hozier and Arcade Fire. Her latest release, Sprinter, showcases vibrant indie rock production and top-tier collaborations, cementing her reputation as a rising force you donât want to missâ because wherever she performs, excitement follows. Please note all seating areas are accessible, so there is no need to purchase specific accessible seating. For questions, contact the box office at 904-355-2787 or boxoffice@floridatheatre.com.

Paddle the Ocklawaha with Adventure Outpost | Saturday, June 13 | 10 a.m. – 2 p.m. | Ocklawaha River (Palatka)Join us for a 3.5 hour paddling tour of the Ocklawaha River with expert guide Lars Andersen! We will begin just downstream from the Kirkpatrick (formerly Rodman) Dam. This section of the Ocklawaha below the dam is wide and braided. There are numerous side streams and winding forks that make this an interesting area to explore. The wide, open channel of the Ocklawaha River offers an excellent panorama of river forests and swamps that, in places, stretch a half-mile back from the main channel, and are a refuge for a wonderful menagerie of wildlife with very little sign of civilization. As history buffs dream of Acuera warriors and the steamboats which once plied these waters, birders and animal lovers will be busy with their binoculars and cameras. In addition to its scenic beauty, this stretch of the Ocklawaha also serves as an excellent "living museum" of man's 15,000 year relationship with nature in Florida. A couple of hours into our downstream paddle, we will stop for lunch at the site of the former river settlement/steamboat landing of Davenport. Also on this site is Davenport Mound, an ancient Indian burial site first excavated in the 1800's. PriceTour & Kayak Rental: $65 Bring Your Own Kayak/Board: $50 RegisterTo register to join us, please call Adventure Outpost at (386) 497-4214. Mention the date (May 29, or June 13) and St. Johns Riverkeeper and have your payment information ready to secure your reservation.
