NEW FOUND GLORY IN CONCERT:
The morning of a New Found Glory concert, feel free to skip your coffee or Red Bull -- you'll get all the energy you need once the Florida-bred punk rockers take the stage. Since bursting onto the scene almost two decades ago, they've been giving punk contemporaries like Green Day and Blink-182 -- both of whom they've supported on tour -- a run for their money as one of the genre's most influential acts. They continue to live up to that reputation with show-stopping live performances packed with hits from the early '00s and recent jams off their 2014 album Resurrection. Frontman Jordan Pundik riles up the crowd with catchy choruses, inviting ticket buyers to revel in his spectacle as the band plows ahead at full steam. Some things never change -- mosh pits and crowd surfing are still staples at New Found Glory's live shows, creating an adrenaline-filled atmosphere that perfectly suits the band's epic catalog of shout-along anthems.
BACKGROUND SNAPSHOT:
New Found Glory was formed in 1997 in Coral Springs, FL by singer Jordan Pundik, guitarists Steve Klein and Chad Gilbert, bassist Ian Grushka, and drummer Cyrus Bolooki. Their debut EP, 1997's It's All About The Girls, introduced them to an enthusiastic underground fanbase and landed them a deal with Drive-Thru Records. In 1999 they released their debut full-length album Nothing Gold Can Stay, which spawned the hit single "Hit Or Miss" and peaked at No. 15 on the US Modern Rock Chart. They followed up in 2000 with a self-titled sophomore album that reached No. 1 on Billboard's Heatseekers chart and spent 21 weeks on the Billboard 200 chart. Their third and fourth albums -- 2002's Sticks And Stones and 2004's Catalyst -- peaked at No. 3 and No. 4 on the Billboard 200 chart and were certified gold by the RIAA. The band has been playing as a quartet since guitarist Steve Klein left the band in 2013, but they still rock as hard as ever on their must-see tours.

As always new found glory delivers. From beginning to end
NFG played a great show and it was awesome to see them in a venue that wasn’t like Warped Tour! Very fun and can’t wait to go back.
These guys bring it every single time! If you love pop punk, there is no other band that can compete (maybe the starting line).
NFG goes hard every time! You will never leave disappointed!
I didn't get to experience NFG catalyst show in St.louis. but I know from past NFG live shows it had to be a awesome show. ???? NFG Rules ????
Was blown away by the whole performance. This was my first time seeing New Found Glory live, and it did not disappoint.
Great pits, great music, and outstanding stage presence
I am an avid concert goer and I go to roughly 20-30 concerts a year. My favorite genre is pop punk and I ALWAYS have a wonderful time. I saw NFG last year when they toured with All American Rejects and I saw them on the Catalyst Tour twice this year. I even was able to meet Jordan, Ian, Cyrus (my fav <3), and Dan who is currently filling in for Chad since he was not able to make it on this tour since he is currently battling cancer. It was such a pleasure to meet them and watch them perform in Philly and at the Stone Pony is Asbury, NJ. Would 10000% recommend going and if you have the patience, definitely wait around after the shows so you can get some pics and sigs :)
This concert was everything. New Found Glory rocked the whole place! The energy in the room, their interaction with fans. It was such a fun time. I have loved this band since the needle on their record player was wearing thin, back in 2000 in a world of TRL and school crushes, when pop punk was stealing the spotlight from boybands. They have consistently made their way to every playlist I've created, even back in the day with burned cds. Catalyst was such a great album, that songs or lyrics still get stuck in my head when I'm doing random things. Come back to Philly when you can!
