SUMMARY:StrateJacket
DESCRIPTION:“StrateJacket\, the nimble and punky alt-rock trio from California’s Bay Area have had to learn the hard way that good things come to those who wait. Formed in 2019\, they quickly found themselves stuck in the middle of a pandemic\, stunting the band’s career before it even started. Singer-guitarist\, Jackson Roemers\, bassist\, Fabian Angel\, and drummer Nate Mangold were not ones to give up easily. This youthful band of early twenty-somethings honed their craft and found their catchy\, fast\, and energetic sound in merging their individual influences. Acts ranging from The Beatles and Arctic Monkeys to Led Zeppelin and Blink-182 were among their favorites. The band eventually played some of their first shows with a guerilla approach to gigging\, driving all over San Francisco to play under bridges\, on beaches\, and in warehouses.

You’d almost feel sorry for him if the song weren’t so catchy. “It’s kind of an homage to the Bay Area\, snotty\, kind of angry song\,” he says\, referring to bands like Green Day\, Rancid\, and AFI who were writing punk songs with big choruses around Stratejacket’s hometown years before they formed. “It was mostly just about a really bad day.” The track almost didn’t make the cut until they saw the reaction it got when they
