The 502s

The 502s, a vibrant beach folk group hailing from Florida, have steadily built a reputation as one of the most spirited live music acts on today’s scene. Often described as “The happiest band on Earth”, The 502s craft sunny, danceable tunes distinguished by breezy banjo lines and infectious, shout-along choruses. Their signature energy comes alive on stage, making every concert a joyous, communal experience for fans and newcomers alike.

This dynamic band has brought their exuberant live show to major UK venues in January 2026, headlining at Leeds Beckett Students Union, O2 Forum Kentish Town in London, O2 Ritz in Manchester, O2 Institute2 Birmingham, and Bristol Electric, with Jamie McIntyre joining as a support act. Highlights from a previous UK run in January 2025 include headline slots at these same venues with support from Henrik. These concerts cement The 502s’ growing international presence and commitment to delivering memorable gigs across the globe.

With releases such as the self-titled album “The 502s” (2024), the anthemic single “Summer Fling” (2025), and the highly anticipated album “Easy Street” slated for release in September 2025, the group continues to expand their rich catalogue of feel-good music. For those seeking authentic, high-energy performances and uplifting folk-pop, The 502s are not to be missed.
