About PEARS:
Although only forming in 2014, PEARS have already achieved an impressive amount. Self-releasing debut LP Go To Prison that year, the band were soon signed to the iconic Fat Wreck Chords, who re-issued the album in 2015.

Not content to rest, the band immediately followed up with the acclaimed Green Star (2016), further adding to the band’s loyal cult following. Well known for their relentless touring schedule, PEARS have previously played alongside Strung Out on their Australian tour, as well as with NOFX and Chicago’s Riot Fest.
