Sydney pop punk sweethearts Forever Ends Here laid their skinny jeans to rest in 2018, but today the trio announce they’re back to wreak havoc across the east coast on the Return Of Forever Ends Here Tour in July, accompanied by rising stars Those Who Dream and the almighty Belle Haven.
FRIDAY JULY 7 – OXFORD ART FACTORY, SYDNEY
SATURDAY JULY 8 – STAY GOLD, MELBOURNE
FRIDAY JULY 14 – THE BRIGHTSIDE, BRISBANE
It’s been five years since the ‘I guess forever really did end here’ puns started rolling and Forever Ends Here set off around the country on what was to be their last ever tour together on the aptly named FEHwell Tour. Original members Luke McChesney (vocals/guitar), Mav Burnett (bass) and Kane McChesney (drums) took their time away until they found themselves in space that called for reformation.
“The reunion has been in the works for quite some time now,” explains vocalist Luke McChesney. “We always thought we’d do some kind of one-off club show to celebrate 10 years of our second EP, but we got talking last year about all the things we miss about the band and all the possibilities if we reopened the door. We’ve done a lot of growing since the band split, not only as people but as song writers too and it seems a shame not to share that growth with the people who stuck by us.”
Hitting Australia’s east coast in July, the trio will be performing fan favourites from Imagine This to From Where I’d Rather Be and everything in between. Forever Ends Here return with regenerated passion and drive, and the possibility of new music coming sooner than you might think.
Forever Ends Here dominated the Australian pop punk scene from their very beginning in 2011 to their demise in 2018, headlining national tours and sharing the stage with the likes of Simple Plan (US), 5 Seconds Of Summer, State Champs (US), Neck Deep (UK), Short Stack and more. Starting out at just 15 years old, the boys quickly built a cult-like following, attracting fans who remained loyal to the band right up until the very end.
Joining Forever Ends Here on all shows is Perth alt-rock duo Those Who Dream and Melbourne emo rock outfit Belle Haven. Off the back of national tours with Mayday Parade and Short Stack, Those Who Dream are shining bright as they capture the hearts of listeners across the country with their playful yet hearty offerings. Belle Haven join in on the fun fresh from their stint across the nation supporting RedHook on the Postcard From A Living Hell Tour, where they’ve been sharing their energetic recent releases to hungry audiences.
The upcoming shows will be intimate and nostalgic. Text your high school friends and lace up your chucks – this is not just a reunion for the band, but for the friends and fans too. Be sure to grab your tickets and experience Forever Ends Here live for the first time in over five years.
