Musically speaking, there’s no shortage of Ramones influence on Default Friends’ debut EP Not Over It.

The young, Orlando-based indie punk foursome has previously played reproductive rights gigs and hosted a top surgery fundraiser, so if a potential resurgence of punk’s fascist side is making you skeptical in the era of Elon Musk’s Inauguration Day salute, just know that, as per usual, this stacked Deviant Libation gig ain’t no Nazi show.

Tickets to see Default Friends play Deviant Libation in Tampa on Saturday, Feb. 1 are still available and start at $10.
