About this event

<p>The Expendables have been throwing the rulebook out the window for nearly 25 years -- and they are still doing it. The Santa Cruz quartet blends ska, surf-rock, punk, reggae, and metal into a live experience that defies any single label but satisfies all of them. With their 2017 Moment EP debuting at #1 on the Billboard Reggae chart, they have proven they can top the charts while staying true to their gloriously genre-defying roots.</p><p>A late September night in Destin is the perfect setting for The Expendables' high-energy, laid-back-but-loud approach to music. Beach towns love bands that bridge the gap between chill and chaotic -- and these guys live there permanently. Whether you are into the surf-rock grooves, the ska rhythms, the reggae bounce, or the punk edge, there is something in every Expendables set for every kind of music lover on vacation.</p><p>Doors open at 6:30 PM, show at 7:30 PM at Club LA. Tickets are $33-$47 and available through TicketWeb. The venue holds 600 people and is open to ages 16 and up.</p>
