After meeting at a show in Philadelphia, and later hanging out at Fest 16 in Florida, Signals Midwest and Carb on Carb come together again in Adelaide of all places for a ripper of a double headline show.

Signals Midwest have been a mainstay of heartfelt American punk rock, releasing 3 albums on the impeccable Tiny Engines label, and leaving countless basement shows breathless. Frontman Max Stern is no stranger to Australia, having toured before solo and with Meridian.

Honorary and sometimes actual Aussie residents Carb on Carb will be back from New Zealand with a shiny new single, a promise of an album and 23kg checked + 7kg carry-on packed with riffs. Part of the Aotearoa Emo Revival, their music is direct and relatable. Songs about dogs, parents and making mistakes.

Catch them both at the Crown & Anchor on Wednesday March 14 with locals Bec Stevens and Superdose Gangway.
