It’s been hell of a year for Destroy Boys, the Sacramento-based quartet which spent a month last summer touring arenas alongside Turnstile and Blink-182.

“…we learned so much so fast, and I feel like we became an immensely better band because of it,” guitarist-singer Violet Mayugba told Spin about the band’s whirlwind 2023.

The Boys—including Alexia Roditis, Narsai Malik, and David Orozco—arrive in the Bay area with a new single, “Plucked,” which finds the band embracing its quirks and delivering a shimmery pop-rock rager.

Noisy Mexican grunge-rock band Margaritas Podridas opens alongside San Francisco’s Chokecherry, and Florida’s own Hijas De La Muerte.

Tickets to see Destroy Boys play Jannus Live in St. Petersburg on Friday, May 10 are still available and start at $25.
