Forty Feet Tall Forty Feet Tall isn’t afraid to say that the kids aren’t alright. That’s part of how they express love, for each other and their audience. Gigs routinely climax with incendiary showstoppers (“We Can’t Go Back to Normal,” “BOIL”) that find Cole tangled up in mic cords or diving into the crowd. But their outrage is anchored in hope, and a drive to do better. Whether there are three people or 3,000 in the crowd, FFT plays like lives are hanging in the balance.

In a sense, they are. These four friends want nothing more than to rock your socks off. As hilarious as they are on Tik Tok, they prefer to be up close and personal. The prohibitions of the pandemic years only amplified that desire. Their music may sound loud and confrontational, but the community they’ve built around it resonates with positivity. Forty Feet Tall is bigger than just Cole, Jack, Brett and Ian. Now it’s your chance to understand what makes them great.
