The groundwork for what has become the relentlessly-touring sonic assault known as The Koffin Kats was laid near Detroit, Michigan when Vic Victor (Lead Vocalist, Upright Bass) joined forces with long-time friend Tommy Koffin (Guitar). After adding Damian Detroit (Drums) the band kicked off in June 2003, stopping for nothing. Now, with over ten years of touring internationally and over two thousand live shows, the touring trio’s current home is out on the open road.

Early 2014 brought another change to The Koffin Kats’ member roster. Ian Jarrell left the band to handle personal business at home in Albuquerque, New Mexico. Not wanting to bring someone too far removed from The Koffin Kats family into the fold, Vic and Eric enlisted John Kay (Guitar). John was the engineer on some previous KK recordings.

The founding lineup returned in 2016.   

Six years after his departure, Tommy Koffin returned to playing guitar with The Koffin Kats. With Vic Victor on lead vocals and upright bass, and E Ball Walls on drums. In 2017, the trio self released the album “Party Time In The End Times” under the Koffin Kats Records label. The band toured throughout the following years until the Covid 19 Pandemic brought live entertainment to a halt.

During the unexpected break from touring, the band took time to write and record. Vic and Tommy put together an acoustic release called “Victor & Koffinfunkle.” Back in writing mode they then focused on new material. This brought about the early 2021  self release of “Ya Can’t Take It With Ya.” A 6 track EP.

The band continues to tour and is currently working on new material to release throughout 2023, their 20th anniversary year.
