Marc Anthony. There is arguably no better live performer than Marc Anthony. He looks like a Latin Skeletor but is a goddam genius onstage. Once he opens his mouth to sing, something about his energy and soul send shock waves through the room. His shows are packed with women in heels, tight dresses, and perfectly applied lipstick who bravely face the very real chance their mascara will run during one of his heart-wrenching ballads. This guy is an emotional magician: You don't have to understand what he's singing, because he's guaranteed to make you float from the potency of his feelings all night. Anthony is bringing his Opus Tour to the American Airlines Arena for two nights this weekend, so you have no excuse not to embrace this life-changing (yes, life-changing!) concert. 8 p.m. Friday, November 22, and Saturday, November 23, at American Airlines Arena, 601 Biscayne Blvd., Miami; 786-777-1000; aaarena.com. Tickets cost $61 to $201.
Rybo and Lubelski. Rybo and Lubelski's commitment to championing their sound can be seen (and heard) in the release schedule of their label, Percomaniacs. The imprint puts out new music every three weeks, and although much of the material is produced by the label’s cofounders, its output also includes contributions from DJ friends and rising underground stars. Percomaniacs has given a platform to artists from New York, Miami, and Chicago, as well as international acts from Berlin, Australia, Japan, and Serbia. The duo releases only tracks they would play in DJ sets, and they have a self-imposed rule about collaborating solely with artists they admire and respect. “We like to make our own trends,” Rybo says, “and put out timeless house music.” He and Lubelski will revel in their drum-oriented brand of dance-floor heaters this Friday when the two go back-to-back for an extended set at Floyd. Read the full interview with the duo ahead of the show, "Rybo and Lubelski Bring a Passion for Percussion to Floyd." 11 p.m. Friday, November 22, at Floyd Miami, 40 NE 11th St., Miami; 305-608-2824; floydmiami.com.
