The Story So Far started with five kids living in Walnut Creek, CA. They had just gotten out of middle school and, influenced by Blink 182 and Green Day, decided to start a pop punk revival band. The result? Several EPs and three full-length albums–all focused on themes of falling in love, mending a broken heart, and celebrating personal victories. These themes, of course, are classically pop punk, as with the band’s sound where supercharged riffs command audiences to belt along and bounce. As you can imagine, The Story So Far’s shows are hyper-energetic and sweaty as hell, so don’t forget to wear comfortable shoes.
