Originally formed in the mid-1990s, Swing Kids made a powerful impact on the underground music scene with their intense live performances, emotionally charged lyrics, and a unique blend of hardcore punk, jazz, and noise rock.
Led by frontman Justin Pearson—also known for his work with his label ThreeOneG and his other projects- The Locust, Retox and Dead Cross—Swing Kids stood out with their raw energy and unapologetic political edge. Though their original run was brief, their self-titled EP and the influential “Situation on Mars” release helped define a new era of art-damaged punk and laid the groundwork for future experimental hardcore bands.
After disbanding in 1997, Swing Kids’ cult status only grew. Their sound influenced a generation of musicians and earned them a lasting place in post-hardcore history. The band reunited periodically for special benefit shows, always drawing passionate crowds. Now, fans old and new have the rare chance to experience Swing Kids live at the Lodge Room, one of Los Angeles’ most intimate and sonically rich venues.
