The Front Bottoms in Portland

The Front Bottoms are an American indie-rock band formed in Woodcliff Lake, New Jersey, in 2006 by Brian Sella and Mat Uychich. Their folk-punk and emo-rooted songs pair acoustic guitar with conversational writing; “Twin Size Mattress,” “The Beers” and “Maps,” along with the albums Talon of the Hawk and Back on Top, are central to their catalogue. The Back on Top Tour took the band through headline clubs and theatres across North America. In 2017 they supported Blink-182 on UK arena dates before returning to headline the Going Grey Tour; they later played North American theatres on the In Sickness & In Flames Tour. The band also created Champagne Jam, a recurring multi-act event, and has performed at Coachella and Chicago’s Riot Fest.
