Following massively acclaimed album releases in 2016 and 2017 (Weezer [The White Album] and Pacific Daydream, respectively), and two sold out tours with Panic!

In 2021, Weezer released two different but equally Weezer albums – OK Human, an orchestral pop album meditating on technology and disconnectedness, and Van Weezer, an homage to the band’s shared metal roots growing up. OK Human’s first single, “All My Favorite Songs,” was one of the biggest rock hits of 2021. In 2022, the band released SZNZ, a four EP project inspired by Vivaldi’s Four Seasons. In 2023, the band embarked on an incredible sold-out run across North America called the Indie Rock Road Trip hailed as one of the best tours of the summer.
