After forming in Atlantic County, New Jersey in 2001, The Early November quickly solidified their place in the early 2000s emo scene, gaining a dedicated fanbase with their heartfelt lyrics and dynamic sound. Their debut album, “The Room’s Too Cold,” was met with wide critical acclaim, debuting at #1 on Billboard Top Heatseekers. Two decades later, the band, consisting of frontman Ace Enders and founding drummer Jeff Kummer, are coming off the recent release of their self-titled, seventh studio album, marking what Enders calls “a pivotal moment” in the band’s history. Fans can expect to hear both beloved classics and material from the band’s most recent record when The Early November takes the stage for the first time ever at Wells Fargo Center.
“Naturally, we love Philly sports and are thrilled the Wings are having us for their halftime show,” said The Early November drummer Jeff Kummer. “We’ve seen countless games and shows at Wells Fargo Center and it’s an honor to play, so we’re preparing an exciting set that everyone can enjoy.”
