The world’s favorite pop-punk group, Magnolia Park have announced a run of headline shows around their appearance at Four Chord Music Festival today. The band will be joined by Broadside and 408 as supporting acts. This line-up makes total sense, as Magnolia Park and 408 have taken to TikTok and Instagram in the last two weeks to promote and tease and upcoming collaboration track. They posted a humorous video showcasing 408 saying the now meme-worthy phrase, “Did we just write the pop punk song of the summer?” before cutting to MagPark responding with “No, WE just wrote the pop punk… Read more »

As they round out their time on the road with blink-182, Beauty School Dropout have shared a frantic new track.
Bowling For Soup‘s Instagram bio reads “Pop Punk Royalty – Easily the 9th best pop punk band in history” and honestly, they’re totally right. With smashing alternative hits like “1985” (the song your moms loves), “Girl All The Bad Guys Want“, “High School Never Ends“, “Almost” and even their popular cover of “Stacy’s Mom“, they have been impossible not to bring up in a conversation about pop punk for over a decade. Today the band announced the “Getting Old Sucks” Tour. A lot of us can certainly relate to that sentiment. It seems like just yesterday we were all jamming… Read more »
Tyler Posey is releasing his debut album at the end of the month, and “Runnin'” is just one of the Summer anthems set to feature on it.
Following up the recent release of their deluxe edition of Baku’s Revenge, Magnolia Park have gifted fans with another brand new track. “Homicide” leans toward the more pop-infused sound the band sometimes explores in their writing. While certainly still being a pop punk banger, the track has an explosive and anthemic chorus you could hear on the radio. The band have quit the knack for crafting a catchy chorus. They’re totally in their bag with this new tune. Magnolia Park have always spread the message of inclusivity and acceptance across their music. Tracks like “Don’t Be Racist” and “Misfits” directly… Read more »

Arrows in Action are back with another all-too-catchy tune, “Head In The Clouds” out today. The track stands out among their previous releases as a warm, sunny, feel-good anthem just in time for summer. Produced by frequent collaborator, Dan Swank, the new track pairs a laid-back groove with carefree lyrics to drive the point home. The Nashville-based group defines themselves as “pop punk adjacent”, which hits the nail right on the head. They certainly have a sound that derives itself from classic pop-punk acts, but the band is willing to explore outside of that box. They blend pop-punk and alternative rock with a… Read more »
