Australia, we hope you are ready for what promises to be the biggest pop-punk tour of the year with an ultimate line-up. That’s right folks, New York pop-rockers STATE CHAMPS are returning to Australia this September with very special guests THE MAINE, HOT MILK & PAPERWEIGHT.
Starting in bedrooms and basements in 2010, STATE CHAMPS quickly ascended as leaders of a new scene owing as much to early Fall Out Boy and Green Day as latter-day Warped Tour bands. Over the course of their career, STATE CHAMPS delivered their music and heartfelt message on extensive tours with bands like Fall Out Boy, 5 Seconds Of Summer, A Day To Remember, and Simple Plan; three different Warped Tours; and a co-headliner with Neck Deep.
Billboard called them “modern-day pop-punk torchbearers” and in 2022, Kerrang! declared them “one of the most authentic and well-respected bands in pop-punk” They’ll be performing all your favourites including all the bangers from their brand-new studio album, Kings Of The New Age.
Phoenix pop-rock titans THE MAINE entered the scene in 2007 and releasing eight critically acclaimed records that have not only pushed boundaries sonically but in the mainstream world.
The group first garnered attention on the Vans Warped Tour before issuing their Top 40 debut, Can’t Stop Won’t Stop, in 2008. That paved the way for their sophomore album, 2010’s Black & White, which cracked the Top 20 of the Billboard 200, their first headli

Fine and dandy like pop-punk candy, Melbourne quartet PAPERWEIGHT have spun a pandemic origin story into non-stop triumphs as they explode into 2022.
Rounding out 2021 with a debut festival appearance at the inaugural Knight & Day Festival alongside the likes of Parkway Drive, Polaris and Alex Lahey, PAPERWEIGHT already have an impressive live sheet in a short space of time. Including headline shows supporting their debut EP, Green Lotus Blooms, to supporting Melbourne pop-rockers Terra. Hysteria Magazine declaring them “As far as Paperweight go, they’ve marked themselves as one of the brightest bands around.” Get those vocal chords ready for the sing-alongs and set those alarm clocks as you won’t want to miss out.

My nickname is “The Amnplifier”. Why? Because around here my focus is on being a conduit for providing greater outcomes that people come here for. My day to day “work” is living in the moment, and I love helping others concentrate on finding their connection to themselves through their experiences.
Why start a music environment? The truth is I love music, I love writing, and I love life. I work with musicians every day, and I feel certain that I will be until they put me in the ground. I have been managing people in businesses of some sort for over thirty five years so along the way I have developed some “wisdom” from my regular and constant “observations”.
Amnplify your experience. That is what we want you to do here, and if you want to let me know why you do, or don’t, shoot me a message on Facebook.
Hope you enjoy yourself here and find something that hits you somewhere.
