BIOGRAPHy

Having been in constant creative demand for over 17 straight years, pop-punk uber-band Bowling for Soup clearly has no problem kicking out fresh songs, ridiculous videos, and album after album of music that sets the bar for their genre. Even after nearly two decades together, some things are the same. They still call Denton, Texas home. They still are putting out an avalanche of new music every year, and they’re still the guys you’d cut class with to get a beer and a hot pocket. For a band that has had only one personnel change in 17 years, which is a remarkable feat by any standards, it’s clear that the team stays tight and that ain’t gonna change. In 2013, they released Lunch. Drunk. Love., and they continue to rock out around the world.
