TIG NOTARO Comedian Notaro is a master at blending humor, humility and self-disclosure. Perhaps most famously, in 2012, mere days after being diagnosed with cancer in both breasts, Notaro spoke about the experience onstage.

Notaro has been nominated for Emmy, Grammy and GLAAD awards, is an NPR and late-night talk-show circuit mainstay and her memoir, I’m Just a Person, is currently a New York Times bestseller. 7:30 p.m. Thursday, June 15, Ponte Vedra Concert Hall, $33-$40, pvconcerthall.com. 10 • FOLIOWEEKLY.com • June 14-20, 2017

GET READY TO RHUMBA!
THE GIPSY KINGS Formed in 1978 in Arles and Montpellier in the south of France, The Gipsy Kings are going strong, performing a potent, rhythmic blend of flamenco, salsa and pop in the form of Catalan rhumba. After enjoying years of success in Europe and Africa, the band won over American fans in 1989 with their third album–they are surely best known for their cover of The Eagles’ “Hotel California” in the 1998 cult fave flick, The Big Lebowski. The band has undergone lineup changes, but the current incarnation still includes founding members Nicolas Reyes and Tonino Baliardo. 7 p.m. Thursday, June 15, St. Augustine Amphitheatre, $39-$59.
