“Take me to the water, in your new rover/ I’ll grab the surfboard and invite some friends over for tacos and ice cream,” Del Pelson frontman Cal Nelson croons on the band’s stand-out track “Tacos & Ice Cream.” The warm, summer-centric song off the group’s latest release, Wide World EP, is perhaps South Florida’s catchiest summer anthem of 2018.

Although there was no official confirmation, enough people took a leap of faith to sell out the room. They were amply rewarded with an action-packed set that was almost like a riddle or an SAT math question. How can a rock band play 41 songs in two hours?
