Flipturn with special guest Winyah at The AMP
For Flipturn, success didn’t arrive overnight. The band, comprised of Dillon Basse (lead vocals, guitar), Tristan Duncan (lead guitar), Mitch Fountain (synth, guitar), Madeline Jarman (bass), and Devon VonBalson (drums), grew steadily with every gig, from college house shows in their home state of Florida to festival appearances at Bonnaroo, Lollapalooza, and Austin City Limits, to national recognition from Jimmy Kimmel Live, ABC News, and The Washington Post – earning the Jacksonville-based band an international reputation as an indie rock powerhouse. By the time Flipturn released their debut album, Shadowglow, they’d become genuine road warriors while still in their mid-20s, supporting the record with a nonstop string of tour dates. That dizzying experience inspired the band’s second release, Burnout Days. Caught halfway between 21st century indie rock, New Wave-inspired nostalgia, and rhythmic alt-pop, Burnout Days finds the beauty that exists between five friends, even in times of burnout.
Gates open at 6:30 p.m., the show starts at 8 p.m. Tickets are $59.60-$104.95. 1340C A1A S., St. Augustine. www.theamp.com

Wander & Rest Tip
After a spectacular, high-energy night singing along to cinematic indie-rock anthems and driving rhythms with our local musical heroes at the Amp, leave the buzzing concert crowds behind and enjoy a peaceful drive back across the bridge to your Vilano Beach sanctuary. On your route home from the venue, consider stopping by 36 Granada in the historic district to visit the French Pantry collective for a premium late-night beverage, or swing past 180 Vilano Grill & Pizza to pick up a hot, comforting slice just moments before pulling into your neighborhood. Once you are safely back at your private Wander & Rest retreat, wash away the concert adrenaline and transition into absolute coastal luxury. Deeply soothe your muscles inside our private sauna, melt away the day’s physical tension from the standing crowd in the bubbling hot tub, or float peacefully under the night sky in the pristine heated pool before curling up in the ultra-comfortable indoor lounge areas for a deep, restful sleep.
