COMEBACK KID
Originating in Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada and first gaining recognition with their 2002 demo and the acclaimed Turn It Around in 2003; Comeback Kid has consistently balanced a DIY ethos and dependability with a humanitarian approach, breaking down hardcore boundaries and elevating the genre to a global stage. Career-defining album Wake The Dead launched the band to new heights in 2005, and 2007 found Andrew Neufeld taking over vocal duties on the band’s third full-length, Broadcasting. Giving hardcore notoriety across the world, Comeback Kid released four albums between 2011-2022, the latest being the critically acclaimed Heavy Steps.
Earlier this year, Comeback Kid released the critically acclaimed Trouble EP through Sharptone (Worldwide) and New Damage Records (Canada). Produced and recorded by the band and John Paul Peters (Propagandhi, Cancer Bats) at Private Ear Recording in Winnipeg, the EP stands as a powerful testament to the band’s steadfast commitment to forging ahead on their own terms. Described as a "must-listen" that captures the band at the height of their creativity, the 4-track EP features the infectious, tongue-in-cheek lead single “Trouble In The Winner’s Circle”, the festival anthem “Disruption”, and the gritty, pulse-pounding “Chompin’ At The Bit.”
