Pepper is a reggae, ska band formed in 1996 originally from Kona-Kailua, Hawaii, United States recently having moved to Southern California. They play a mix of reggae, dub, ska, and punk and are best known for their 2006 single "No Control" which was a Top 20 hit on the Billboard Modern Rock Tracks chart. Pepper's relocation was inspired by Volcom Entertainment's excitement and interest in producing and distributing the band's music.
