For the last decade, In Her Own Words have quietly become one of the most beloved and consistent voices in modern pop punk, building a dedicated fanbase through brutally honest songwriting, massive singalong choruses, and the kind of emotional connection that only comes from lived experience.
In 2026, the band celebrates the 10 year anniversary of their breakthrough album Unfamiliar, the record that helped define a generation of emotionally charged pop-punk and introduced fans to songs that still hit just as hard today. From bedroom speakers to packed clubs around the world, Unfamiliar became more than just an album. It became a soundtrack for growing up, falling apart, and figuring yourself out along the way.
To celebrate the milestone, the band will be performing Unfamiliar in full on a special anniversary co-headline tour alongside longtime scene favorites Every Avenue. Bringing together two bands whose songs helped shape the soundtrack of the late 2000s and 2010s emo and pop punk scene, the tour is designed as both a nostalgic celebration and a reminder of why these songs continue to resonate with fans years later.
“Ten years ago we made Unfamiliar as a bunch of kids trying to process anxiety, heartbreak, growing pains, and everything in between,” says vocalist Joey Fleming. “We never imagined those songs would still mean this much to people a decade later. Seeing fans scream these lyrics back to us after all this time is honestly surreal.”
While the anniversary tour celebrates the album that changed everything for the band, In Her Own Words aren’t simply revisiting the past. Behind the scenes, the band has spent the last year working on a brand new full-length album, one they describe as their most ambitious and emotionally honest material to date. With new music expected in 2026, this tour marks both a celebration of where the band came from and the beginning of an entirely new chapter.
Every Avenue
Every Avenue is an American pop-punk band from Marysville, Michigan, formed in 2003. Before their temporary disbandment, the group consisted of David Ryan Strauchman (lead vocals, piano), Joshua Randall Withenshaw (lead guitar), Jimmie Deeghan (rhythm guitar, backing vocals), Matt Black (bass, backing vocals) and Dennis Wilson (drums, percussion). The band is signed to Fearless Records and released their debut album, Shh, Just Go with it in 2008. It was followed up by their second album, Picture Perfect, in 2009, which reached No. 136 on Billboard 200. In 2011, the band’s latest and third album titled Bad Habits was released, and it peaked at No. 63 on Billboard 200, being the band’s highest chart position and sold over 300,000 Records Worldwide.. Every Avenue has toured with bands such as Mayday Parade, All Time Low, The Maine on The Compromising of Integrity, Morality and Principles in Exchange for Money Tour, Boys Like Girls, and have appeared on the Vans Warped Tour. In 2023, David Strauchman announced “The Light In The Dark” Tour with support from rising pop-punk band Makeout, and emo-pioneer SayWeCanFly including co-headline dates with Sparks The Rescue.
Felicity
Orlando’s FELICITY are redefining what pop punk and emo can sound like in 2026: stadium sized hooks built for chaos, catharsis, and community. Breakout singles “The Weather” and “GOD MODE” have pushed the band into a new lane.
Anchored by a sound that bridges the anthemic power of Foo Fighters with the irreverent edge of Sum 41, FELICITY have built traction both online and on stage. Their viral content consistently reaches millions and they have shared the stage supporting legends like Fall Out Boy, The Used, and Story of the Year, along with festival appearances at Warped Cruise, So What?! Music Fest, and more.
With their new album Mixtape, Vol. 2 (Out June 16th 2026) produced by Andrew Wade (A Day To Remember, Neck Deep), FELICITY is doubling down on their biggest strength: creating songs that hit like a mosh pit but stick like an arena chorus. They are a band in motion, actively building one of the most engaged fanbases in the alternative rock resurgence and positioning themselves as one of the next breakout live acts from North America.
