Joining in on the fun were our friends from Inferno Rock Radio, who were there not only to enjoy the show but also to promote their station and their new mobile app. Now available on Apple and Google Play, the app offers fans access to nonstop rock, wherever they go. With Inferno Rock Radio in the building, it was clear this was more than just a concert—it was a celebration of all things rock. When these guys show up, you know it’s going to be a great time!!

DONEFOR

DONEFOR brought their electrifying blend of pop-punk and metalcore to The Ranch in Fort Myers, delivering a high-energy show that left the crowd buzzing. Frontman Parker Shogren (lead vocals, guitar) and co-lead vocalist Riley Stewart (guitar) led the charge, kicking things off with their brand new singe, “Severed”. The song’s catchy hook and heavy breakdowns had the audience singing along and moshing in no time.

Shogren and Stewart’s dynamic vocal interplay was complemented by the tight musicianship of Zachary Lulf (guitar, vocals), Leo Cartelli (bass), and Christian Molina (drums). The band moved effortlessly between punk melodies and crushing metalcore riffs, keeping the energy high throughout their set, which featured tracks from their debut album Sleep on It. With over a quarter-million Spotify streams, the album’s infectious energy came alive on stage, as the band’s chemistry and passion for performing shone through.

Despite the challenges of being a local band in Southwest Florida, DONEFOR proved they can hold their own, with Shogren’s natural stage presence and the group’s tight performance making it clear why they’re becoming a staple in the local scene. Their DIY attitude, from booking shows to promoting their music, has paid off in building a loyal fanbase.

Before they hit the stage, we had the chance to hang out with Jim Lo from the band. We even gave the guys a little grief for not having wristbands ready for entry to the venue, but it was all in good fun.

His signature rap-rock style was on full display, combining ferocity with smooth melodic hooks. Tracks like “Bartender” and “Renegade” had the crowd chanting along while moshing in the pit.

Gomes’ interaction with the audience was a highlight, pulling the crowd into the experience with call-and-response moments and spontaneous banter that kept the energy high. Hed PE’s seamless shift between heavy riffs and reggae-infused melodies showcased their versatility, keeping everyone on their feet.
