Pop punk band The Wonder Years took their name from the title of a paper written by cofounder Dan Campbell’s one-time teacher.
∙ At the band’s first practice, they wrote their first song, “Buzz Aldrin: The Poster Boy for Second Place,” which was featured on their 2005 self-released debut EP in and on their debut LP.
∙ The 2011 breakout LP Suburbia I’ve Given You All and Now I’m Nothing was their first of three releases to top the Billboard Vinyl Albums chart.
∙ They began their popular “Occasionally Annual Halloween Extravaganza” concert series in 2014, at which they perform one set as another band (Queen, Limp Bizkit, etc.) and one as themselves.
∙ In 2014, frontman/cofounder Dan Campbell launched an acoustic side-project, Aaron West and the Roaring Twenties, which, like The Wonder Years, performed on the 2015 Vans Warped Tour.
∙ The group issued a successful “get out the vote” challenge to their fans in 2020, promising that if they registered 1,000 voters, they would release a new song, “Brakeless.”
