The Drowns are a Seattle punk trio formed in 2017 by singer/guitarist Aaron 'Rev' Peters, bassist Andy Wylie, and drummer Jake Margolis, all veterans of the punk circuit with decades of prior band experience. Their sound blends street punk and oi! with unusually harmony-rich vocals, setting them apart from most of their peers in the genre. September 2026 saw the release of their fourth studio album Harsh Reality, produced by Bill Stevenson (Descendents, Black Flag) at The Blasting Room in Fort Collins, Colorado.

The Drowns headlined Rebellion Festival in Blackpool, UK again, where they have become a firm crowd favorite.
