About New Found Glory
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 + Riverside
New Found Glory rolled through Riverside Municipal Auditorium in August 2022 with the kind of setlist that rewarded longtime fans. They dug into deeper catalog cuts like "Forget My Name" and "The Great Houdini" alongside the expected anthems, closing out the night with "All Downhill From Here." It was a solid reminder that these guys still know how to pace a show—mixing the heavy hitters like "My Friends Over You" with the kind of track selection that suggests they actually care about the people in the room.

Live Music in Riverside
Riverside's music scene has always been scrappy and eclectic, but it's not exactly known as a pop-punk stronghold. That said, there's a solid foundation of rock and alternative fans here who grew up on the stuff New Found Glory made. The venue culture in Inland Empire tends to favor bigger touring acts passing through, so when a band this solid lands, it's worth the trip from San Bernardino or Orange County.
Riverside road trip to see New Found Glory?
Stay in the Magnolia Center area near downtown Riverside, where restored historic buildings sit alongside new boutique hotels and wine bars—it's the only neighborhood that actually feels like somewhere worth spending an evening. Before the show, dinner at Duane's, a reliable California steakhouse with real cocktails and actual craft to the food. Spend your afternoon at the Riverside Metropolitan Museum or walking through the Mission Inn's sprawling Mission Revival campus—it's genuinely stunning architecture, the kind of thing that reminds you why people actually settled this part of California.
