Lagwagon are set to return to Australia and New Zealand in early 2026 to mark three decades of their landmark record HOSS. The California punks will perform the 1995 album in full, from opener “Kids Don’t Like to Share” through to closer “Ride the Snake,” alongside a set of fan favourites from across their career.
The tour offers audiences the rare chance to hear HOSS front to back – a record that helped define ’90s skate-punk with tracks like “Violins” and “Razor Burn.” For long-time fans and newer listeners alike, the shows are a chance to revisit an era that shaped Lagwagon’s sound and their place in punk history.
Formed in 1989 in Goleta, California, Lagwagon took their name from their tour van and became one of the first acts signed to Fat Wreck Chords. Known for stripped-down, high-tempo live performances, the band has spent three decades touring, breaking, and reuniting, while keeping their core ethos intact.
