Bayside

Bayside has continued to evolve over two decades, transitioning from underground punk rock to a band performing in major arenas and collaborating with legendary artists, demonstrating sustained relevance and adaptability in the music industry. After self-releasing a five-song demo, Bayside signed with Dying Wish Records, releasing their debut EP, ‘Long Stories Short,’ in 2001. The band, including lead vocalist Anthony Raneri, lead guitarist Jack O’Shea, bassist Nick Ghanbarian, and drummer Chris Guglielmo, toured with several acts in the early 2000s. Following a split EP with Name Taken in 2003, Bayside signed with Victory Records.

Commemorating a significant milestone, Bayside embarked on a 15-year anniversary tour in 2015, followed by the release of ‘Vacancy’ in 2016 and ‘Acoustic Volume 2’ in 2018. Their seventh studio album, ‘Interrobang,’ arrived in 2019, followed by ‘Acoustic Volume 3’ in 2020. In recent years, Bayside has maintained a prolific release schedule, debuting ‘The Red EP’ in 2022 and ‘The Blue EP’ in 2023. This continuous artistic momentum culminated in the release of their ninth studio album, ‘There Are Worse Things Than Being Alive,’ in 2024.

The band’s enduring appeal is highlighted by their consistent evolution over two decades, transitioning from underground punk rock roots to performing in major arenas, collaborating with legendary artists, and preparing for future releases such as “Devotion And Desire,” slated for 2025. Bayside’s sustained relevance and adaptability underscore their significant and lasting impact on the music industry.
