SING & SWING
CHARLES TURNER Jazz vocalist Turner might be a Young Turk but he has some old-school flavor, too, flipping through standards like “Honeysuckle Rose” and then riffing on Eddie Jefferson’s vocalized version of Miles Davis’ “So What.” While still only his midtwenties, Turner has performed with the likes of Jason Moran, Craig Handy and Bobby McFerrin and has jammed at the Kennedy Center, and made tours of Europe and Russia. At his gig here this weekend, Turner is backed by local jazz heroes, the John Lumpkin Trio. 8 p.m. Saturday, June 3, The Ritz Theatre & Museum, Downtown, $24$29, ritzjacksonville.com. 10 • FOLIOWEEKLY.com • May 31-June 6, 2017

OTEP In the world of metal, Otep Shamaya remains a game-changer. Since 2000, she’s been leading the LA-based band that bears her name. She and the band have survived catchphrases like “nu metal” and “alt-metal,” breaking out of genre’s at-times strict parameters by writing tunes about LGBTQ rights, all the while gleefully stomping along with their end-of-theworld tunes and imagery. 6 p.m. Friday, June 2, with openers Stayne Thee Angel, Manna Zen and Higher Ground, 1904 Music Hall, Downtown, $15, 1904musichall.com.
