Formed in January 2009, the Real Nasty is comprised of 3 veteran bay-area musicians with diverse musical backgrounds. Jacob Groopman’s guitar work is noticeably influenced by his bluegrass picking skills, and drummer Matt Smith’s deep interest in West African drumming is what informs his mastery of the cajon. With bassist Ryan Lukas, a music professor at the University of Santa Clara, holding down the bottom end, The Real Nasty brings together 3 very strong musical backgrounds, forming a unit and a sound that is truly unique.
Now, with their debut album just released, The Real Nasty are focused on bringing their explosive live show to new fans all over the West Coast. "Paper City" draws you in and keeps you there, and the album is only surpassed by the band's live energy. Don't miss them when they stop in your town this summer.
