Hailing from Jacksonville, FL, Evergreen Terrace has been blazing their own path through the melodic hardcore style for over a decade now.

Anchored by guitar player/vocalist Craig Chaney’s clean singing and catchy hooks, punctuated by lead singer Andrew Carey’s vicious screamed vocals, the five-piece band never depended on anyone but themselves to push their band forward. Rounding out the lineup alongside Andrew and Craig is Longineu Parsons III, (guitar/vocals) who happened to jump on board the line up prior to their just completed European tour, Jason Southwell on Bass and Alex Varian battering the skins .

With their blistering combination of hardcore, metal and melody driven punk rock, Evergreen Terrace has toured the world with bands extensively with acts such as: As I Lay Dying, August Burns Red, Hatebreed, Rise Against, Thursday, Every Time I Die, Strung Out, Agnostic Front and performed at festivals including. Sounds of the Underground, Vans Warped Tour and Soundwave Festival.

getting the crowd ready for the headliners are NZHC's most promising act at this moment, Grafton's Beatdown Kingpins XILE. Off the back of an album launch that is selling out as quickly as I write this and featuring the likes of Antagonist A.D's Luke Manson, Death Metal drummer James Horton, Simon Bonner, Dylan Cameron AND Lee Waddingham, this group is a force to be reckoned with and are only getting bigger with Asian and multiple Australian tours under their belts the sky is the limit. Oh and they're merch is dope af!

Kicking off the evening's hurricane are Bridge Cities own Drop off Point, gracing us Aucklanders with they're own brand of old school Hardcore brutality. These guys and the NZPP crew represent Hamilton's ongoing support and importance to the NZHC scene, reminding us that Bridge City is always going to be a relevant and have leading array of HC Alumni helping to keep the scene fresh.

The energy at this show is gonna be electric, summer will be here, so shake off the winter's blues and come get some physical therapy in a mosh pit guaranteed to be going off the whole night but truly devastating once Evergreen Terrace take the stage.
