For 21 years Warped have been an evolving rock and roll animal. For Benny Watkins and Cris Wilson, Warped has been a life-long commitment having starting the band at 13 years old in Geelong.
Warped have always been known as a band who always did what they wanted. If they felt like they wanted to play for seven nights in a row, they did. If they felt like they wanted to make an album, they did. If they wanted to play free shows, they did. Warped were true cavaliers in the Australian music scene.
Over the years, Warped have shared the stage with many international acts including Dinosaur Jnr, Henry Rollins, Audioslave, The Melvins, the Cosmic Psychos, The Hard-Ons, The Meanies, Magic Dirt, Spiderbait, Legends of Motorsport,The Nation Blue, Tumbleweed and The Mark of Cain to name but a few.
