Chicago, IL – Woolworthy is set to drop their new EP, “Fall With You,” on June 17, 2025, via Boss Tuneage Records. The four-track EP marks the band’s first release since their November 2023 comeback album, “Electric Heartbreak,” which reintroduced Woolworthy to the punk rock scene after an 18-year hiatus.
The Fall With You EP was recorded and mixed by renowned producer Mike Hagler at Kingsize in Chicago. Hagler, known for his work with John Langford, The Mekons, and Wilco, has helped the band capture their signature sound – raw, infectious power-pop-punk with a gritty rock n’ roll edge – recorded mostly in live studio takes.
The first single, “Fall With You,” is out now and the EP will be available across all major digital platforms, including Spotify, Apple Music, and Amazon Music, on June 17, 2025.
Boss Tuneage Records, one of the UK’s longest-running punk labels, continues to support Woolworthy’s resurgence with the “Fall With You” EP – a testament to the band’s enduring legacy.

Electronic Press Kit: DownloadWoolworthy is a dynamic power-pop-punk band hailing from the vibrant Chicago music scene that
launched bands like Verca Salt, Smoking Popes, The Bollweevils, Local H and many more.
Formed by members Rudy
Gonzalez (vocals/guitar) and Rick Uncapher (bass), the band burst onto the local
scene in 1995, playing their raw and energetic songs influenced by bands like The
Replacements, early Goo Goo Dolls, Soul Asylum, and Green Day.
Drawing inspiration from the DIY ethos of the punk scene, they self-released two
LPs and booked countless local shows before capturing the attention of Boss
Tuneage Records, a London-based indie label best known for working with pop-punk
legends like The Asexuals, The Nils, and The Doughboys.
Under Boss Tuneage Records, Woolworthy released the "Blasted Into Ashes" EP
in 2001 and "Recycler" in 2002. The "Recycler" LP showcased songs like "Leap
Year" and "Wallflower" that highlighted their ability to combine catchy melodies
with high-energy pop-rock.
"One of the punk underground's best-kept secrets." - Kerrang Magazine
Woolworthy toured the Midwest, the UK, and Europe, sharing the stage with
notable acts of the time such as Plain White T’s, Unwritten Law, Sugarcult, Lucky
Boys Confusion, The Pavers, and Local H, but after numerous lineup changes, the band came
to an end in 2005.
Members of the band went on to play in or were involved with
numerous Chicago bands such as The Dead On, Noise By Numbers, Textbook,
Caviar, Loud Lucy, Muchacha, Dan Vapid and the Cheats, and The Cells.
Flash forward to October 2023 and the band is back with a brand new album
called “Electric Heartbreak” due November 17th on their longtime label Boss
Tuneage Records. Recorded by Jeff Dean (Samiam, Braid) and mixed and mastered by
Mike Hagler (Wilco, The Mekons, Waco Brothers), this is the bands first new
music in 21 years. Anchored by the classic line-up of Rudy Gonzalez -
vocals/guitar, Rick Uncapher - bass, Mark Doyle - drums, and Dave Suh - lead
guitar/vocals, the record picks up right where they left off - playing up-tempo,
anthemic rock and roll.
