School is back in session, and Halloween season has officially begun. To keep the spooky vibes flowing, it’s time to crank up your alternative playlists while you grab some pumpkin-flavored treats. For some playlist inspo, these Virgo and Libra babies have made some of the most iconic emo, pop-punk, and indie tracks, and for that, they deserve the best birthdays ever. From the always iconic Avril Lavigne, to Mayday Parade‘s Jake Bundrick and Alex Garcia, all the way to My Chemical Romance‘s Mikey Way, here are some September musician birthdays to mark in your cals this month.
