He’s ‘Not The 1975,’ but Knox plays a free St. Pete concert this month

As the song says,

Knox Alexander Morris is “Not The 1975,” but honestly, that isn’t a turnoff when it comes to a young pop musician whose latest EP I’m So Good At Being Alone? could convert even the most resentful pop music hater.

The seven-track collection contains slightly grungy guitar tones, plenty of synth licks, and even a collaboration with indie-pop trio Nightly, which features heavy usage of an acoustic guitar.

Nightbreakers, which kicked off day two of the 20th 97X Next Big Thing in 2021, opens this next installment in the 24-year-old radio station’s Underplay series, which has brought acts like Grouplove and Pierce The Veil to the historic St. Pete room.

Tickets to the 97X Under Play featuring Knox on Thursday, April 25 at St. Petersburg’s Floridian Social are free, but you have to win them or pick one up at a ticket drop.
