New Found Glory
Coca-Cola Roxy — Atlanta, GA

New Found Glory formed in Coral Springs, Florida in the late 90s and basically defined what pop punk sounded like for a generation. Their self-titled debut in 2000 and follow-up "From the Screen to Your Stereo" established them as the band that could write hooks sharp enough to stick in your head for years. "My Friends Over You" became their signature moment—a song about choosing your friends over a relationship that somehow resonated way beyond its simple premise. They've kept at it for over two decades, never chasing trends but not quite willing to disappear either. The band's been through lineup changes and label shifts, but they've maintained the core appeal: earnest, melodic rock that doesn't require you to be fifteen to appreciate, even if it definitely hits different when you are.

Shows are loud singalongs where everyone knows the words. Crowd's genuinely there for it, not just going through the motions. They play the hits without irony and the energy never really dips. People lose their minds in the best way possible.

Known for My Friends Over You, Head on Collision, Dressed to Kill, All the Same, This Disaster

New Found Glory rolled through Atlanta in mid-July, hitting Ameris Bank Amphitheatre with a setlist that leaned into their catalog's depth. They opened with 'Understatement' and worked through the hits—'All Downhill From Here,' 'Hit or Miss'—but the interesting moves came in tracks like 'Failure's Not Flattering' and 'Dressed to Kill,' songs that showed why people stuck with them beyond the radio singles. 'My Friends Over You' closed things out, a reminder that this band's been mining the same vein of earnest pop-punk for two decades and somehow it still lands.

Atlanta's music landscape is dominantly hip-hop and trap, with rock occupying a smaller but consistent lane. Pop-punk specifically has never quite dominated here the way it did in coastal cities, which actually makes visiting bands like New Found Glory interesting — they're coming to an audience that might appreciate them precisely because they're not the default. There's a scrappy DIY rock undercurrent in Atlanta that occasionally surfaces at smaller clubs and venues.

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.
