Ballyhoo! are a self-proclaimed Beach Rock band from Maryland. For over 20 years, the band has been dragging the Chesapeake coast’s restless energy into venues across the US, Japan, and Canada, blending pop punk, reggae, and rock into something contagiously, effortlessly fun. Their music has landed on Jimmy Buffett’s Radio Margaritaville, Spotify’s Beach Vibes, Soak up the Sun, and Essential Ska editorial playlists — which tells you everything you need to know.

Live, they hit different. The energy is contagious, the hooks are relentless, and nobody leaves unhappy. They’ve earned their place on stages on the Vans Warped Tour, Oceans Calling, Reggae Rise Up and supporting slots for 311, Reel Big Fish, Dirty Heads, and Less Than Jake. This summer, they’re heading to Europe for the first time to play the BrakRock and Punk Rock Holiday festivals.

Their tenth album, Bad Summer, was produced by John Feldmann (Blink-182, Goldfinger, Avril Lavigne) — a full-circle moment that unites one of the band’s earliest influences with their most ambitious record yet. Filled with the optimism, energy, and hooks that have always defined Ballyhoo!, it’s a band charging confidently into the future. Bad Summer drops August 28th on Right Coast Records — and this fall, they hit the road with Texas pop-punkers Bowling for Soup. Same deal as always: loud, sweaty, and a whole lot of fun!
