Pop-punk project Games We Play will perform July 1 at Irving Plaza as part of the nationwide Summer School Tour.

The tour features performances by Honey Revenge, South Arcade, Winona Fighter and Chase Petra, with sponsorship from Hot Topic and idobi Radio.

The performance comes as Games We Play releases its newest single, Is This What I’m Made Of, marking the project’s debut with Nettwerk Music Group.

The song blends energetic pop-punk melodies with reflective lyrics exploring the pressures of success and the search for creative authenticity.

Games We Play is the project of songwriter Emmyn, who began writing and releasing music as a teenager and has since amassed more than 70 million streams and 150 million views on TikTok.

The artist has previously toured with bands including Fall Out Boy, All Time Low and YUNGBLUD.

The Summer School Tour will give fans one of the first opportunities to hear the new music performed live.
