The Ataris have announced the reunion of their So Long, Astoria-era lineup in honor of the album’s 20th Anniversary. The band will be playing the record in its entirety at a special one-off show in Los Angeles this coming April. More details are to come.
The pop-punk band made their major label when they released So Long, Astoria through Columbia Records in 2003. Having sold over 700,000 copies in the US, it is The Ataris’ sole record to be certified gold by the RIAA.
This lineup featuring frontman Kris Roe, bassist Mike Davenport, guitarist John Collura, and drummer Chris Knapp has not played a show together in almost a decade.
