From the venue:
Matt Pryor (guitars/vocals) - Jim Suptic (guitars/vocals) - Rob Pope (bass) - Ryan Pope (drums) James Dewees (keys/vocals) On their new album Problems —their first full-length in eight years—The Get Up Kids examine everything from life-changing loss to loneliness to the inevitable anxiety of existing in 2019. But by sustaining the essence of their sound—anthemic choruses with sing-along-ready melodies—the band highlights those troubles as a shared experience, giving way to an unbreakable solidarity. And at the heart of Problems is an invaluable element the band’s embodied since their 1997 debut Four Minute Mile : a penetrating lyricism that’s both acutely introspective and indelibly resonant.
