Long-running Mesa, AZ-based melodic punk/rock/reggae act Authority Zero will ring in their 25 year anniversary as a band, with the release of ‘Live At The Rebel Lounge,’ a 24-track double LP consisting of the band’s greatest hits and fan favorites, recorded live last July in front of a rapturous hometown crowd over 2 sold-out nights at Phoenix’s The Rebel Lounge.
Accompanying the live album is ‘Authority Zero: Twenty Five Years In The Pit’ a limited-run 136-page hardbound retrospective photo book, featuring over 250 images, which documents the band’s history over the last quarter-century.
‘Live At The Rebel Lounge’ and photo book pre-orders are available exclusively via Zia Records.

Additionally, the band will headline the ’25 Year Tour’ which kicks off on December 4. The trek culminates with a hometown show at Tempe’s Marquee Theater on December 28.

Prior to launching their anniversary shows, AZ will be out supporting Less Than Jake and Bowling For Soup on The Good Vibes and High Fives Tour which runs October 1-11. They then join Pennywise and The Bronx on tour Nov 13-22. Interspersed among those dates are some one-off solo shows.
Frontman Jason Devore says, “It’s been twenty-five long and amazing years. Years filled with music, friendships both old and new, memories, chaos, passion, happiness, and pain. This album is a landmark in all of our history books and a celebration to all who have endured this journey along the way. Let the music play on long after we’re gone. Thank you all.”
