ABOUT SCREECHING WEASEL
Formed in 1986, Screeching Weasel helped shape the sound of modern pop-punk with fast, sharp songs built on sarcasm, melody, and attitude. Fronted by Ben Weasel, the band has released more than a dozen albums including My Brain Hurts, Anthem for a New Tomorrow, and Boogadaboogadaboogada!, and has influenced a long list of bands from Green Day to Blink-182. Their most recent releases have proven they are still writing with the same bite and energy that defined their early years. After nearly four decades, Screeching Weasel continues to headline festivals and pack clubs worldwide. These Hawaii shows mark a rare chance to see a cornerstone band of American punk in an intimate venue.
