2024-12-17
Brand New, the once-iconic New Jersey screamo band, made a significant comeback over the weekend. After disbanding seven years ago, rumors began to swirl online when images and chatter about a secret show at the Inglewood Lounge in Nashville emerged. This unexpected event has sparked a wave of excitement among fans and music enthusiasts alike.

Uncover the Mystery of Brand New's Reunion

Reunion Details

NME reports that on Sunday night, Brand New held a secret show at the Inglewood Lounge. Not only did they perform, but they also debuted some new music during the set. This was a moment that fans had been waiting for, as the band had been dormant for years.

The emergence of rumors and images on social media only added to the excitement. One person wrote on X (formerly Twitter), "Brand New playing secret show in 2024 was not on my bingo card." Another added, "We all must allow ourselves a certain level of hypocrisy, and mine is that I am currently very unwell about this supposed Brand New secret show." These reactions show just how much impact the band still has on their fans.

Band's Past Glory

Brand New was a force to be reckoned with in the early 2000s emo scene. Their sophomore album Deja Entendu (2003) and its follow-up, The Devil and God Are Raging Inside Me (2006), garnered much acclaim. These albums showcased the band's unique sound and emotional depth, making them one of the most beloved bands of their time.

However, in 2017, frontman Jesse Lacey faced allegations of sexual misconduct with a minor, which led to the end of the band. Since then, fans have been longing for a reunion, and this weekend's show seems to have fulfilled that wish.

Current Status

It is said that in the past, Lacey has performed "a private family and friends solo show around Christmas." But this year, he brought the whole band together and they played new music. At this time, none of the members of Brand New have commented on the reports, leaving fans to speculate about the future of the band.

The mystery surrounding Brand New's reunion continues to intrigue fans. Will this be a one-time event, or will the band make a more permanent comeback? Only time will tell.
