As It Is: Live + Signing

AS IT IS return to their hometown for an intimate in-store live set and signing at Resident Music, 28 Kensington Gardens, Brighton and Hove, on 19 July 2026. Marking a new chapter with their self-titled fifth studio album, the trio channel growth, resilience and the tight link they’ve built with fans. Fronted by American singer Patty Walters alongside Ronnie Ish on guitar and Alistair Testo on bass, the band has steered pop punk and emo through different shades since 2012: the melodic burst of Never Happy, Ever After and okay., the darker concept of The Great Depression, and the restless energy of I Went To Hell And Back.

This in-store strips things to the essentials: direct melodies, sharp dynamics and lyrics that face doubt, relationships and mental health head-on. Close-up and unfiltered, the set puts the spotlight on the band’s songwriting as they introduce new tracks while revisiting staples from across their catalogue, before meeting fans for signatures and a quick word.
