As the frontman of punk trio Dead Billionaires, Warren Campbell possesses an uncanny ability to turn the strains of everyday life into inspiring and enlightening narratives. He draws on exhaustion, absurdity, and stubborn hope to craft songs that feel cathartic and communal, providing a spark that can soothe or ignite, depending on the need. Full of sharp humor with unflinching sincerity, his writing captures the feeling of living inside the chaos rather than pretending there’s an easy escape.
On the band’s latest EP, More!, Campbell emerges as a wry observer of a community pushed to its limits. Whether he’s skewering the oligarchy, lifting up working-class endurance, or simply smirking through the woe, he brings unmistakable humanity to the chaos and reminds us there’s still plenty of joy to be found in the messy noise. Despite only being four songs long, More! proves without a doubt that Campbell is one of the city’s premier lyricists, as well as a truly electrifying performer.
Catch Warren Campbell up close at Plan 9 Music, where his songs will turn into solidarity sing-alongs for a truly unique listening experience. This is music tailor-made for anyone who is tired, hopeful, angry, and still moving forward. Don’t miss it!
