Last year, the power trio exploded in the underground with its song Clark Kent, released on Transgender Day of Visibility 2022 (March, 31st). Clark Kent tells the story of Vocalist/Guitarist James Aurelia realizing their true self and proceeding to come out as a Transgender individual in 2019.

The original performance took place as part of “RCO Rocks” and was captured live at Snug Harbor Music Hall in Staten Island. The artwork for the release was taken by NFC’s Bassist Alan-Arthur Aurelia and showcases the iconic “Ska Against Transphobia” made popular by Ska musician JER.
