The Surfrajettes mark a decade of bandom this spring with a “Road Dogs 2” tour alongside Alaska-raised, Los Angeles-livin’ songwriter Bethlehem Shalom.

The ‘jettes are popular for the Britney Spears cover on the B-side of a 2019 single, but the rest of the Canadian instrumental quartet’s catalog is just as spin-worthy, especially for fans of surfy, vintage doo-wop and rock.  

Tickets to see The Surfrajettes play Crowbar in Ybor City on Thursday, April 9 are still available for $17.67.
