Expert Timing cancel Friday show at Orlando's Social, rest of bill moves to St. Matthew's Tavern

UPDATE: This show at the Social has been canceled due to members of Expert Timing getting COVID. However, Dead Selves, Palm Tree Square and Default Friends will be playing at St. Matthew's Tavern on Mills Avenue Friday night at 8 p.m.

The end of times may be near, but punk is alive and well in the City Beautiful. The minds behind the Pulp Fest have teamed up with Foundation, culminating in a killer lineup of bands taking the Social stage. Orlando’s bubblegum-grunge outfit Expert Timing headline the night. They’re a tender warrior band, taking on tough topics with warmth, but always ready to throw a punch when necessary.

Joining them are the very relatably named Dead Selves from Atlanta. The band’s recent single, “Leather Teeth,” is a simultaneously haunting and groovy slice of grandiose emo. And then there’s Orlando’s Palm Tree Square and Default Friends, more than worth opening an ear to. Support your local punk scene like it supports you.
