Dissonance & Dissent Lafayette Dissonance & Dissent is a political skacore / punk / ska band from Lafayette, IN. The origins of the band originated in Albuquerque, New Mexico with Travisty and Jared Gills. Taking inspiration and music from their original New Mexican bands (Travisty & The Screwups and Code Name SDI), they formed Dissonance & Dissent after relocating to Indiana. Joined by a group of top notch musicians, the new band transcends the artists' previous work. Finding themselves in ever shrinking scene/genre, the group tries to keep the spirit of punk, skacore, and ska alive, while also branding it with their own unique stamp. With politically charged lyrics, the angst, speed and aggression of punk, the catchiness of ska, and a high level of musical complexity rare in both punk and ska, the band hopes to leave their mark with the music they create; Wishing to not only influence and help re-spark the genres and local music scene, but also promote social and political awareness.
