The Warped Band

The Warped Band is a Central Pennsylvania quartet that serves as the official tribute to the Vans Warped Tour, endorsed by founder Kevin Lyman. Their shows span pop-punk, emo, ska, hardcore, and metalcore with fan-voted setlists drawn from more than 150 Warped-era hits. Formed by Aaron Pearson, Drew Zimmerman, Brandon Deamer, and Justin Levendusky, the group played Warped Tour's 30th anniversary pre-parties before earning official endorsement in 2025. Live, they recreate festival energy with immersive visuals and crowd-shaped sets of Blink-182, Green Day, and Paramore anthems.
