Upchuck is a five-piece punk band from Atlanta, formed from connections made in skateboarding, construction, and teenage delinquency.
The band is made up of lead guitarist Mikey, rhythm guitarist Hoff, bassist Armando, drummer Chris, and vocalist KT – who combined are inventively raucous and revolutionary. They’re a kinetic force of youth and enthusiasm, churning out brutally honest, boisterous tracks that blur the lines between psych rock, punk, and hardcore. In a world saturated with arbitrary rules and paper-thin moralism, Upchuck offer freedom through sensation, a type of unserious transcendence found through the swirl of bodies melting into one another in the passion of dance. Upchuck isn’t trying to tell anyone how to live, rather, they are simply trying to find a way to make life worth living for both themselves and their friends—if the music compels you to move, you might as well consider yourself their friend too.
“Upchuck is undeniably one of the most interesting and talented up and coming bands in the current state of punk and hardcore music.” – New Noise Magazine
