Bowling For Soup Announce Brand New Live Acoustic Album “Stoked On Trent”

Album Lands 21st February 2025

December 2025 OVO Arena Wembley Show
On Sale Now

Recorded during their 2022 live acoustic tour of the UK, Stoked On Trent fully captures the joy, audience participation and spontaneity of a Bowling For Soup acoustic show. Many of the big hits (1985, Girl All The Bad Guys Want, Almost, Ohio, Punk Rock 101) are present and accounted for in their excellent stripped back format. There are also several examples of the well known “BFS” comedy from their live shows, songs created on the spot and unexpected covers. A fantastic encapsulation of what a Bowling For Soup acoustic show is all about!

“Personally, I’m not a huge fan of live albums (I know, great selling, Jaret). But there is something about our acoustic shows that I feel translates so well when recorded. You can feel the energy and the passion of the crowd, and truly sense the fun Rob and I are having. We were quite literally, “STOKED ON TRENT!””

This ground breaking event follows on from their enormously successful and previously mentioned February 2025 A Hangover You Don’t Deserve 20th anniversary tour which saw BFS playing to sold out arenas, large theatres and warehouses across the UK. Following a career headlining festivals and selling out shows the world over, headlining one of London’s most iconic venues marks another huge milestone in the career of Jaret Reddick and co.

Having treated the British Isles as their home away from home since their big breakthrough at the start of the 21st Century, Bowling For Soup have played countless venues big and small in all four corners of the UK. Due to their close connection with the UK music scene, Bowling For Soup will be donating £1 from every ticket from the OVO Arena Wembley show to the LIVE Trust (UK charity registration number: 1211251). The LIVE Trust is the industry body designed to receive funds from arena and stadium shows to then distribute to grassroots venues, artists, festivals, promoters and more.

“BFS” will be bringing all the hits to Wembley – Girl All The Bad Guys Want, 1985, High School Never Ends, Phineas & Ferb and so many more. They’re also bringing a fantastic supporting cast of Wheatus (who will be celebrating the 25th anniversary of their debut album) while cover superstars Punk Rock Factory will get the party started. It is set to be a perfect pre-Christmas night out for rock and pop punk fans of all ages.

Tickets are on sale now and are available from: AEGPRESENTS.CO.UK | AXS.COM | TICKETMASTER.CO.UK. VIP Packages for the show are already sold out!

“Wembley…What can I say?!? When we first started playing the UK in 2000, you could never have told me that one day, we would be headlining the coveted Wembley Arena! More over, that it would take us 30 years to get there!! I don’t have a bucket list anymore. My dreams have all come true. I have a beautiful family, I’m still making people smile, and the future is bright. But let’s just say there is a little part of me that still has some things to mark off…Wembley is at the top.”
