Biography
Formed in 1999 in Boca Raton, FL, Protagonist were influenced by the mid 1990s east coast punk explosion especially artists hailing from the Philadelphia area where brothers John and Peter Marullo had lived from birth until 1996. In addition, Protagonist was driven by a simple desire to start the best possible band. Punk? Street punk? Hardcore? Something undefined? That definition never mattered. To this day, it still does not matter to Protagonist. Define them how you want. This is not just a punk band. This is Protagonist. Protagonist’s musical journey can be traced back to their first LP, Hope and Rage (Blackout) through 2009’s The Chronicle, and to their last release, States both released on Paper+Plastick. Do not call Jean Jackets in June a departure in sound. For the individuals who have followed the Marullo brothers and Protagonist, they know this is a Protagonist record, Jean Jackets in June was recorded by Pete Steinkopf (Bouncing Souls) at Little Eden, Mixed by Jamie Woolford (The Stereo) at Room Sound, and Mastered by Dan Coutant at Sun Room Audio. In support of the record, Protagonist toured with the likes of New Found Glory, Less Than Jake, and Red City Radio. The band recently released a split with Omnigone and are currently working on a new album.
