Florida ska-punk posterkids Less Than Jake will be kicking out the jams Saturday night at La Zona Rosa. The show is part of the "Shout it Loud" tour. They'll be pushing their latest release, GNV FLA, which is the band's first new album to come out through their independent label, Sleep it Off Records. (Previously, the label had been primarily re-releasing the band's older material.)

The new album's a bit of a throwback to a kind of vintage Less Than Jake -- lots of bounce to the ounce, and horns galore. The back to the roots impulse should make the show especially fun for those of us who remember the early days of the band's career, way back in the early '90s when we were all first becoming enamored of the internet and we weren't too old and crotchety to think getting totally blitzed at outdoor festivals was the best idea ever.

Also on the bill are Big D and the Kids Table and O Pioneer. Follow the jump for a chance to win tickets!
