Rex Ramona is an indie/alt band out of San Diego that incorporates psychedelic funk and raw surf rock into the basis of pop punk. Formed by musicians from across the Golden State, from the bay to the border, the band converged in Southern California to build something loud, electrifying, and consistently changing.
The name blends Rex, Latin for “King,” with Ramona, a nod to the elusive, rustic, and lesser-known hills east of San Diego. Serves to represent the ambitions and goals of the band, while acknowledging their unique roots.
Drawing inspiration from bands like The Strokes, Gorillaz, Twenty One Pilots, Green Day, and even the theatrical sweep of Andrew Lloyd Webber, Rex Ramona blends garage grit with cinematic ambition
