The Atlanta-based five-piece punk rock group Upchuck is no stranger to the Athens music scene. Upchuck is made up of lead guitarist Mikey, rhythm guitarist Hoff, bassist Armando, drummer Chris and vocalist KT. The group formed in the neighboring city in 2018, when they were in college, to create a kinetic but unrelenting band that takes pride in its unrelenting, bold and brutally honest lyrics. It made a name for itself through the release of its debut album, Sense Yourself, and, more specifically, the song “Our Skin,” which reflects on the group’s roots. Described as a multi-genre group with a psych-rock and hardcore punk sound, Upchuck is an artist for the underdogs. Local acts Rubber Udder and Snuki will also perform.
