Com Truise, the synthwave project of producer Seth Haley, is set to hit the stage at Crowbar in Ybor City next Wednesday, as part of the venue's final week of concerts. The run wraps up Friday, July 31, with a billed finale headlined by Talib Kweli. Longtime regulars and out-of-town fans have been refreshing the calendar for surprise headliners, reunions and one last burst of small-room energy, and this booking brings a national electronic draw to a farewell slate stacked with local acts.
According to the listing on Com Truise's official tour page, the project is booked for the July 29 Crowbar date, placing Haley squarely in the middle of the club's closing-week stretch.
Per Brokenmold's event listings, next Wednesday's bill pairs Com Truise with livetronic producer Kaelin Ellis. The venue's ticketing pages show advance prices for the night starting at about $28, and Crowbar's site has the full calendar and address details.
A hometown send-off
A string of farewell shows at Crowbar has already drawn packed nights as promoters and community series try to squeeze one last season into the room. Creative Loafing previously reported that the venue's lease is set to expire this summer and that rising costs factored into the decision to wind down operations. For many local musicians and fans, the final week reads like a snapshot in time for Tampa's independent music scene.
What Com Truise brings
Com Truise is the stage name of Seth Haley, whose synth-heavy, retro-futurist sound helped define the modern synthwave revival. His summer itinerary mixes club dates with festival slots, and pairing him with Kaelin Ellis points toward a dance-forward, electronic night rather than a full live band bill.
For tickets and event details, check the venue and promoter pages, Crowbar and Brokenmold, for updates on set times and age rules. Crowbar lists its address as 1812 N 17th St in Ybor City and most late shows are 18+, so it is worth double-checking event pages before heading out. If the recent farewell nights are any indication, expect crowded rooms and an emotional send-off throughout the week.
