AUGUST BURNS RED
Crafting their signature brand of metalcore for over two decades, AUGUST BURNS RED have ferociously established themselves as one of the foremost acts in the genre. Hailing from Lancaster, Pennsylvania, the band's milestones and legacy span everything from multiple top-10 placements on the Billboard Top 200, to tours with everyone from Bullet For My Valentine to A Day To Remember and countless more.
With two GRAMMY Award nominations in their wakeβnominated for Best Metal Performance in 2016 for "Identity" and again in 2018 for "Invisible Enemy"βAUGUST BURNS RED have never rested on their laurels or stopped pushing the limits of their sound. This fact has loudly carried into 2026 with the upcoming release of their tenth studio album, Season Of Surrender, due out on June 5 via Fearless Records.
On the live front, AUGUST BURNS RED's reputation is as formidable as their creative output. Renowned for their visceral performances across the globe, they most recently stupefied Australian crowds in 2023 supporting Polaris nationally on the Fatalism Tour. Praised by Scenestr for delivering "a raging masterclass in pure American metalcore with a 20-year, career-spanning set list that resonated spectacularly" during their Adelaide show, X-Press Magazine also declared of the band's 2023 Perth performance that ABR demonstrated "why they have cemented themselves as one of the most respected names in the scene."
BLOOM
One of Australia's most prolific rising heavy acts, BLOOM wield an open-veined take on melodic hardcore that has seen them tour the globe, release two full-length albums, and cultivate an army of dedicated fans along the way. Emerging in 2017, BLOOM released their 2024 debut full-length, Maybe In Another Life, before swiftly turning their gaze to their 2025 sophomore album, The Light We Chase.
Wowing with their multi-faceted and matured collection of songs on album number two, and expanding their creative reach further than ever before, BLOOM kicked off 2026 with their biggest headline performances to date, touring Australia nationally to celebrate The Light We Chase. Whether sharing stages with the likes of Silverstein and Thornhill or enamouring as headliners, you can definitely count on one thing when it comes to a BLOOM live show: it is seriously not to be missed.
I PROMISED THE WORLD
Ticking off their live Australian debut in 2026, Texas-hailing five-piece I PROMISED THE WORLD will arrive ready to stun this September and October. Born out of a desire to thrive in the face of tragedy, I PROMISED THE WORLD started life after the father of vocalist/guitarist Caleb Molina lost his life in 2020 due to COVID.
Officially forming in 2023, I PROMISED THE WORLD is both an extension and expression of Molina's grief, while also showcasing a cathartic defiance and celebration in the process. With nods to nostalgic sonic terrain woven into their creative DNA, their most recent full-lengthβtheir 2026 self-titled EPβshowcased a rebirth of sorts for the group, while also notably blending screamo, Midwest emo, post-hardcore, and more. Most recently, I PROMISED THE WORLD supported The Devil Wears Prada across North America.
