Half Dutch, half American, founded in Boston and now rocking away in Amsterdam. Jaya The Cat plays an original bled of reggae, ska and punk rock – dosed with dub and dance hall beats – all blending into a musical soundtrack to support tales filled with drunken sunrises, narrow escapes, dysfunctional love affairs, political disillusionment and optimistically raised glasses, through seedy bars, carnival parades and late night dives.
Drunktank brings you fast, melodic, sing-along 90’s skatepunk in the tradition of Epitaph, Fat Wreck Chords and Burning Heart bands, combined with riffs and guitar harmonics from 80’s metal. The band started out in The Hague more than ten years ago, but are now signed in the Netherlands, Belgium, Denmark and Japan.
“The songs are done, the band is tight, vocals and backingvocals worked out perfectly and the guitar-riffs and solo’s bring this music on the crossing of metal and skatepunk” – Live XS Magazine
