SUMMARY: Christian artist TobyMac reflected on his evolving music style ahead of his performance at the Brandon Amphitheater. Rooted in hip hop, R\&B, and soul, he says his sound has mellowed over time, shaped by life’s ups and downs. Though he sometimes tires of older songs like “Speak Life,” their enduring message keeps them meaningful. He continues to blend new hits like “Cornerstone” and “I Just Need You” into his setlist, skipping “Good Morning” out of respect for collaborator Mandisa. TobyMac promises fans a joyful, diverse, and unified show experience, filled with both nostalgic favorites and fresh, relevant music.

SUMMARY: Scattered afternoon storms may disrupt outdoor plans today, with highs in the upper 80s to low 90s and heat index values in the mid-90s. Overnight temperatures will dip to the 70s. More storms are possible tomorrow, especially in the Delta during the morning, with widespread storms expected by afternoon. A high-pressure system near Baja California will shift northward this week, reducing rain chances but increasing heat and humidity.
