The Warped Band, the official tribute band for Vans Warped Tour, has announced their first massive U.S. coast-to-coast tour this winter of 2026. Based in central Pennsylvania and represented by Providence Music Group, the band recently secured their placement in Warped Tour’s history. Kevin Lyman, founder and owner of the Warped Tour, bestowed upon them official status as the only tribute band licensed to represent the festival’s storied history.

The tour kicks off Jan. 2 in Buffalo, NY, at Buffalo Iron Works and spans 29 stops. The band will be traveling for 4 months down the East Coast, through the South and Southwest, up into California, and finally back east across the Midwest, ending on their home turf come Apr. 4 in Altoona, PA at McGarvey’s.

About The Warped Band and the Fan Experience
Bringing the full Warped Tour experience to the stage, the band performs hits across punk, pop-punk, emo, ska, alternative, and hardcore. Their sets span Warped Tour alumni staples like blink-182, Paramore, Green Day, Fall Out Boy, and My Chemical Romance, alongside deeper cuts from artists like Limp Bizkit, Katy Perry, and Eminem.

Focusing on crowd enjoyment and interactions, the band invites all audience members to vote on their setlist each night, ensuring every show is unique. Further, concertgoers will be treated to interactive elements, video, light display, cryo, and nonstop energy, recreating the magic and nostalgia of the legendary festival; this is not your typical cover band!

The group is composed of frontman Drew Zimmerman on vocals and rhythm guitar, Aaron Pearson on vocals and lead guitar, Justin Levendusky on bass, and Brandon Deamer on drums. Each member brings over 20 years of experience in the punk music scene. The members were previously in touring bands and eventually came together after bonding over their love of Vans Warped Tour and all it entails. Deciding to continue the community ethos of the festival, the foursome is partnered with a local food charity, and donates a percentage of their food-insecurity-focused merch line, Food Fight, to local food charities.
