About Hellogoodbye

Hellogoodbye formed in 2001 in Huntington Beach, California, with Forrest Kline as the primary creative force. They're best known for their 2006 debut album 'Zombies! Aliens! Vampires! Dinosaurs!' which spawned the indie pop-punk hit 'Here In Your Arms,' a song that somehow became ubiquitous on MySpace and early YouTube despite its jangling, almost twee sensibilities. The track's infectious energy and Kline's breathy vocals defined a particular strain of mid-2000s pop-punk that was equal parts earnest and ironic. Beyond that one big moment, Hellogoodbye continued churning out albums with diminishing mainstream attention, but maintained a devoted cult following who appreciated Kline's songwriting approach—simultaneously clever and heartfelt, nerdy and romantic. They've become something of a comfort band for millennials who grew up with their music on scene playlists and Warped Tour lineups.

Their shows tend toward the enthusiastic and self-aware, with crowds that actually know the words to deeper cuts. Kline performs with dry, understated stage presence, letting the music do the work. Expect singalongs and genuine affection from attendees, though the energy is more earnest than raucous.

Hellogoodbye + Atlanta

Hellogoodbye has maintained a quiet presence in Atlanta over the years, checking in occasionally to remind people that emo-pop sensibilities never really go away. Their most recent stop came on November 2, 2025, at The Eastern, where they worked through the catalog with the kind of practiced ease that comes from playing these songs for two decades. The band hit the familiar marks—"Here (In Your Arms)" landed exactly where it needed to, and "When We Collide" still carries that sugar-rush melodic hook that made them memorable in the first place. The crowd showed up knowing the words, which tells you something about staying power in a genre that doesn't always reward it.

Live Music in Atlanta

Atlanta's indie and alternative rock scene has always been willing to embrace the melodic and the earnest, which is probably why Hellogoodbye finds an audience here. The city's never been precious about pop-sensibility in rock songs, and that openness extends to emo-adjacent acts with hooks for days. Venues like The Eastern provide the right scale for bands operating in this space—big enough to matter, small enough to feel intimate.

Atlanta road trip to see Hellogoodbye?

Stay in Buckhead or Virginia Highland for the neighborhood feel — tree-lined streets, good restaurants, walkable enough to actually enjoy yourself. For dinner, Sotto Sotto does excellent Italian in a no-fuss basement setting, or Rathbun's for steak if you want something more formal. Spend an afternoon at the High Museum of Art, then grab drinks at The Eagle, which has the kind of dark-wood-and-whiskey vibe that actually works. Catch a Braves game at Truist Park if timing lines up. The food scene here is legitimately good without being try-hard about it.
