Hopeless Records Celebrates 30th Anniversary with Rock & Roll Hall of Fame

July 23rd, 2024

My good friends Louis Posen, Ian Harrison, Erin Choi, and the rest of the team at Hopeless Records are celebrating the label’s 30th anniversary this year.

The Southern California-based label played a huge role in the careers of Avenged Sevenfold, All Time Low, The Wonder Years, Waterparks, Fame On Fire, and more. 

The traveling “Hopeless Museum” exhibit, boasting over one thousand label artifacts, will stop at the Rock Hall in Cleveland on August 24 and 25th.

An additional Hopeless Records exhibit will open in the Rock Hall’s main exhibit hall on August 24. The same day will feature performances by Awsten Knight from Waterparks, Illuminati Hotties, Dan Campbell from The Wonder Years, and Scene Queen, with a Q&A panel hosted by Alternative Press magazine founder Mike Shea
