The Front Bottoms emerged from Woodcliff Lake, New Jersey in 2006, carving a genre-defining niche in the indie rock and folk punk landscape. Led by vocalist and guitarist Brian Sella and drummer Mat Uychich, the duo blends emotionally raw lyrics with quirky melodies and punk energy. Their breakout self-titled debut and follow-up albums Talon of the Hawk, Back on Top, and Going Grey introduced fan favorites like “Twin Size Mattress,” “Be Nice to Me,” and “Flashlight.” Their latest release, You Are Who You Hang Out With, showcases their evolution with tracks like “Emotional” and “Punching Bag,” reaffirming their signature blend of sincerity and chaos.
Known for their commanding stage presence and emotionally explosive performances, The Front Bottoms have played sold out shows at iconic venues including Red Rocks Amphitheatre, House of Blues, and The Fillmore. Their annual Champagne Jam festival has become a cultural phenomenon, expanding coast to coast with immersive lineups and fan-driven energy. Critics describe their concerts as incendiary, heartfelt, and unforgettable, with fans singing every word and dancing from start to finish. Their live reputation is built on high-energy sets, crowd interaction, and a communal atmosphere that turns every show into a celebration.
Currently on their “Finding Your Way Home” tour, The Front Bottoms are performing across North America with stops in Boston, Chicago, Atlanta, and Philadelphia.
