Jawbreaker: Dear You 25th Anniversary Tour with Descendents, Face To Face, and Samiam at Fillmore Auditorium

Jawbreaker remains one of the influential bands of the post-punk era, with lead singer and guitarist Blake Schwarzenbach, bassist Chris Bauermeister and drummer Adam Pfahler carving a unique niche in the emo and alternative scenes with indie classics such as 1990s Unfun, 1992s, Bivouac, and 1994s, 24 Hour Revenge Therapy, which was included in Pitchfork’s Top 100 Favorite Records Of The 90s. Rolling Stone list the album, Dear You, as their number 4 in the Top 40 Greatest Emo Albums of All Time and have noted “Jawbreaker’s fingerprints are all over much of the rock that took over mainstream radio in the mid-2000s.” Countless bands cite them as inspiration and fans including Green Day, Blink 182, Dashboard Confessional, and Nirvana who took the band on tour in 1992.

Punk-rock band, The Descendents are led by guitarist Frank Navetta, along with bassist Tony Lombardo and drummer Bill Stevenson. They are better known for their legacy to punk than for any true commercial success. The Descendents have been cited as hugely influential to modern-day pop-punk and skate-punk bands such as Blink 182, Fall Out Boy, Propagandhi, The All-American Rejects, Green Day, The Bouncing Souls, NOFX, The Offspring, and The Ataris.
