State Champs Detail New Album 'Around the World and Back'

FUSE TV - State Champs Detail New Album 'Around the World and Back'

State Champs story isn't unlike one you've heard before. A group of pop-punk-lovin' guys got together in a sleepy suburb, practiced their butts off, and formed a band. They released a few EPs, the last of which, 2014's The Acoustic Things, charted at #112. Their debut album, The Finer Things, was released the year prior, and charted at #131. Impressive stuff for a band still in their infancy, but not one undeserved.

These New York boys are responsible for ushering in a new wave of pop-punk, one that is as clever as it is inventive. It feels familiar but not derivative. In short, they have personality. We sat down with lead guitarist Tyler Szalkowski to talk about their upcoming sophomore release, Around the World and Back, and to see how success is sitting with the group.
