Brisbane's Worse For Wear are gearing up to release their forthcoming debut album, Sure To Leave A Mark later this year, and to set the right levels of excitement early, their new single will bring all the right energy. 'Friends' is a feel-good, punchy track showing a wholesome appreciation for your best mates and everything good in your life. Vocalist Curtis Heinz highlights:

"Take a step back and look at what you have to be thankful for. Even though we can often wrestle with negative thoughts and feelings there is always something positive that you can try to focus on instead. Understanding it is often easier said than done."


This pop punk trio out of Brisbane are definitely ones to watch as songs like 'Friends' feature some of the most melodic punk melodies and easy listening lyrics we've witnessed from an upcoming Australian act. The video showcases scenes of the band playing live, which should entice you to add them to your live music bucket list (once lockdown ends of course). Having witnessed Worse For Wear live for the first time myself on Reside's last visit to Queensland, I can assure you now these guys put on an epic live show that kinda reminds you of the US's most prominent pop punk scene upstarts State Champs and Real Friends.
