Are you ready for the madcap chaos of Australia’s largest travelling music festival? Good Things season returns with a head-spinning line-up fit for a fever dream. Across three East Coast dates, this year’s Good Things Festival will deliver a trip down the rabbit hole with a stacked bill of international heavyweights, old favourites, hungry up-and-comers, and Aussie staples. And in a boon for younger attendees, Sydney’s Centennial Park festival date will be a 16+ event for the first time!
In the lead-up to Good Things 2024, HEAVY will be running a small feature on the bands playing so you can get up to speed before the big day. Today we bring you Bowling For Soup.
Bowling For Soup are pop punk legends. Celebrating their 30th anniversary as a band, the Grammy nominated Texan four-piece smashed their way into the public consciousness at the start of the millennium and have stayed there ever since. With hits like Girl All The Bad Guys Want, 1985, High School Never Ends and the Disney-powered Today Is Gonna Be A Great Day (from Phineas and Ferb), there’s a good chance most people you know will know at least one “BFS” song. Their 2022 album Pop Drunk Snot Bread was hailed as their best album in 15 years, a tribute to their enduring ability to put out great songs all the way through their career.
Arena fillers and festival headliners in their second home of the UK, Bowling For Soup are masters of making every show a very personal experience, whether they are playing to 500 people or 50,000! BFS are currently on the form of their lives – playing to some of their biggest US crowds in years while celebrating the 20th anniversary of their hit album A Hangover You Don’t Deserve. Returning to Australia for the first time in well over a decade, BFS can’t wait to give their fans down under an evening they’ll never forget.
