Formed in Hermosa Beach in 1988, Pennywise helped define the melodic hardcore sound that emerged from Southern California’s late ‘80s punk underground. Over the past three-plus decades, the band has built an international following through relentless touring and a discography that includes classic tracks like “Fuck Authority, “Alien,” and “Bro Hymn.”
Pennywise is Jim Lindberg (vocals), Fletcher Dragge (guitar), Byron McMackin (drums), and Randy Bradbury (bass). The band’s most recent album is Never Gonna Die (2018).
