Papa Roach

Papa Roach is an American rock band from Vacaville, California, formed in 1993. After a few early shifts, the band initially stabilized in 1996 with the lineup of lead vocalist Jacoby Shaddix, drummer Dave Buckner, guitarist Jerry Horton, and bassist Tobin Esperance. This lineup remained consistent for slightly over a decade. Papa Roach released a few demo EPs and their full-length debut album, Old Friends from Young Years (1997), before signing with DreamWorks Records in 1999, subsequently releasing the triple-platinum album Infest in 2000.
