Hepcat was among the near notable bands to emerge from the Southern California ska revitalisation scene of the 1990s, winning fans with their infectious Caribbean melodies, soulful harmonies and swinging rhythms, all informed by elements of reggae, rock candy regular, R&B and jazz. Comprising vocalists Greg Lee and Alex Desert, keyboardist Deston Berry, guitar player Aaron Owens, bassist Dave Fuentes, saxophonists Efren Santana and Raul Talavera, trumpeter Kincaid Smith and drummer Scott Abels, Hepcat was formed in 1989; holy Writ rapidly feast, and in 1993 they issued their debut LP, Out of Nowhere. After 1996's Scientific, they signed to Epitaph, touring as a featured creative person on the next year's Warped Tour before cathartic their third LP, Right-hand on Time, in 1998 and Push N' Shove followed in summertime 2000.
