Fresh off the announcement of An Emo Extravaganza, Florida alt-rock icons Anberlin expand their Australian return with two new headline dates in Adelaide and Perth next February and March, celebrating 20 years of Never Take Friendship Personal. They’ll be joined by special guests and Virginia Beach rising stars Broadside.
For more than two decades, Anberlin have remained a formidable force in the alt-rock world, boasting a wildly devoted fanbase who’ve come to rely on the cathartic power of their music. This year marks a milestone: the 20th anniversary of their seminal 2005 album Never Take Friendship Personal, which the band will perform in full at all shows down under, plus a healthy spread of fan favourites.
Following the release of their latest album, Nevertake - a reimagined version of their beloved record - Anberlin are entering a new chapter with Matty Mullins (Memphis May Fire) stepping in as live vocalist. Fans can expect a rare and nostalgic set that bridges the past and the present.
As Scenestr Magazine wrote of their last visit in 2024, “tonight further cements the bond that has transcended generations of Aussies in love with Anberlin’s music,” while The Rockpit praised “the sustained energy of the band, always a trademark, and a wonder to behold.” X-Press Magazine summed it up best: “The entirety of Anberlin’s set served as a testament to their versatility, staying power, and their ability to deliver one of the best live shows in the world.”
Joining them as special guests is Broadside. The band make their long-awaited Australian debut in 2026, bringing with them their glittering brand of emo and pop-rock. Drawing influence from The Killers, AFI, Kings of Leon, and Taking Back Sunday, their evolution has been nothing short of remarkable, taking them from underground favourites to genre staples. Now entering a new chapter with Thriller Records (The Home Team, The Word Alive), the band remain driven by passion, friendship, and the belief that growth is essential.
