Hepcat, a ska and reggae band formed in southern California in 1989, is known for their soulful harmonies. Their debut album, Out of Nowhere, was released in 1993 on Moon Ska Records. After signing with Epitaph Records subsidiary HellCat Records, Hepcat released Right On Time in 1998, which featured the modest hit "No Worries" and secured a spot on the Vans Warped Tour. In 2000, they released Push And Shove. By the early 2000s, the ska scene became oversaturated, leading to Hepcat being dropped by their label. The band went on hiatus but reunited in 2003 for continued touring. Vocalist Greg Lee suffered a massive brain aneurysm and cardiac arrest at his home on March 17, 2024, and was pronounced dead in the hospital two days later on March 19, 2024, at the age of 53.
