Description

HEPCAT, formed in 1989 in Los Angeles, California, by the late vocalist Greg Lee and keyboardist Deston Berry, has created a musically complex sound that combines ska, rocksteady, reggae, dub, soul, Caribbean melodies, deep, rich harmonies, and latin jazz elements that appeals to Rastas, skate punks, mods, and jazz enthusiasts alike. The term "Hepcat" originated from the word "Hep" which was early 1930's slang pertaining to a devotee of jazz, especially swing. It was also the name of vocalist Alex Desert's cat-"Hep-Cat." HEPCAT's debut album, Out Of Nowhere, was released on Moon Records, in 1993, displaying its creative abilities as well as tight vocal and instrumental performance. Three years later, Scientific was released on BYO Records which fueled the band's rising local notoriety. HEPCAT's 1997 album Right On Time and 2000's Push 'n' Shove, both released on RANCID's Tim Armstrong's Hellcat Records label, established the group as a pioneer of modern ska in the 1990s - one that was primarily influenced by the retro Jamaican rhythms of the 1960s.
