New Jersey’s high-energy ska punk trio Joker’s Republic will release their second full-length, The Hand You’ve Been Dealt, on October 10th via Punkerton Records. Produced by ska-punk icon Roger Lima (Less Than Jake), the album brings a dozen punchy, infectious tracks that explore themes of identity, grief, politics, and mental health, all delivered with the band’s signature humor and unforgettable hooks. Joker’s Republic have a run of upcoming tour dates including an appearance an SPI Fest and support slots with Space Monkey Mafia and Save Ferris, the band will also be on tour in the US with PWRUP and Mega Infinity later this year.

“This record is us at full throttle. It’s personal, it’s loud, and it’s ridiculously catchy. Plus, Roger Lima told us it slaps, so there’s that.”
