Justin Pierre of Motion City Soundtrack
Wednesday, 7 January, 2026

On this week's episode of Artist Friendly, Joel Madden is joined by Justin Pierre of Motion City Soundtrack. Last year, Motion City Soundtrack released The Same Old Wasted Wonderful World, their first studio album in a decade. Recorded at Electrical Audio in Chicago, the LP was produced by early collaborator Sean O’Keefe and featured songs with Fall Out Boy’s Patrick Stump, Citizen’s Mat Kerekes, and Sincere Engineer, ultimately feeling like a homecoming. Before the pop-punk alums resume their U.S. tour at the end of January, Pierre stopped by the Artist Friendly studio to open up about their return.
