Travis Barker has just dropped a new 30-second hardcore punk solo track.

The blink-182 drumming sensation is both behind the kit and on vocal duties for the song, which is called Dues Paid and was also written and produced entirely by him.

It ties in with the release of Travis’ first-ever collab with Vans (yes, really, somehow that hasn’t happened before?!): a pair of Old Skool shoes.

Via Vans, these sneakers carry ‘the Dues Paid emblem on the vamp, a mantra that reflects Barker’s tenacity and the legacy he has earned through relentless perseverance. The style also includes a barbed wire design on the foxing, canvas uppers, cotton laces and Travis Barker logo detailing on the heel and tongue.’

They’re available now, with a second drop coming in 2026.
