SURGE EPK
BIO
SURGE delivers a bold “modern-classic” hard rock sound that’s loud, proud, and unapologetically electrifying. Formed in Uvalde, Texas, by vocalist Kät Jacksin, guitarist Dan Martini, and bassist Erikk Lee, with drummer Guss Locke helping establish the band’s early sound, SURGE has quickly made waves with high-energy stage shows and a raw, authentic style.
2024 was a breakout year for SURGE, highlighted by a spotlight performance at Rocklahoma, supporting Lita Ford and Stephen Pearcy of Ratt at the iconic Whisky a Go-Go, and the release of their explosive single, “Crazy Little Bitch,” accompanied by a hard-hitting music video.
The momentum continued into 2026 as SURGE completed its first United Kingdom tour and welcomed drummer Emmett Ahlschlager of Leakey, Texas, to the lineup, marking an exciting new chapter for the band.
