The Valterra Dragons

Gainesville, FL

Bio

Blasting off the cracked sidewalks of Gainesville, Florida, fueled by cheap coffee, scraped knees, and the raw spirit of old-school skatepunk, The Valterra Dragons deliver a fast, hook-laced barrage of anthems for the alienated and pissed-off—laced with nods to skate culture and the absurd brilliance of VHS-era cinema. Shout-along choruses read like a love letter to simpler times, spray-painted with sarcasm, duct tape, and heart—built for rebellion.

But behind the tongue-in-cheek references and throwback flair lies a razor-sharp anti-fascist message: calling out injustice, lifting up the marginalized, and refusing to back down. This band is for those who believe in living against the grind of oppression, with a soundtrack that hits as hard as the pavement beneath your feet.

With members from Against All Authority, Protagonist, Coffee Project, Rehasher, and Fallen From The Sky, this crew brings decades of punk cred, a heart full of nostalgia, and a fast-downhill attitude. The Valterra Dragons are equal parts skatepark grit, house show chaos, and cult-film fever dream—loud, urgent, and impossible to ignore.

They’re here to remind you: the past wasn’t perfect, but damn, it was fun.
