Papa Roach · Tune In
Papa Roach is an American rock band formed in Vacaville, California, in 1993, when vocalist Jacoby Shaddix and drummer Dave Buckner met at Vacaville High School, later joined by guitarist Jerry Horton and bassist Tobin Esperance. After early independent releases, they signed to DreamWorks in 1999 and broke through with 2000's Infest and the single "Last Resort," which topped the Alternative Songs chart and was certified 6x platinum. Drummer Tony Palermo joined in 2007. The band has continued releasing albums and touring internationally; in 2025 they launched the "Rise of the Roach" tour with Rise Against and marked the 25th anniversary of Infest.
