The three members of KRÖNA.

KRÖNA

The punk trio KRÖNA features two veterans of the band Pericles, formed in the Dominican Republic but long based in the U.S., along with a drummer who is a native of Venezuela. The rhythms of the music of their home countries brings a unique aspect to their heavy hardcore attack. They’re on tour all summer ahead of the late fall release of their debut album, Dead Air Diaries. Also on the bill are Madison trio We Should Have Been DJs, who have been on a roll since the release of their excellent 2024 album, Find Something New To Miss, and a followup split EP with Dear Mr. Watterson, along with Wavers and Weird Place.

Rising Caribbean punk force KRÖNA is charging through North America this summer on an extensive run of tour dates in support of their explosive new single “Take ’Em All”, now streaming on all platforms. With their debut LP Dead Air Diaries slated for release on November 22, the Miami-via-Santo Domingo trio is taking their high-energy, genre-smashing live show coast to coast.

Blending breakneck punk, hardcore fury, and syncopated reggae grooves, KRÖNA brings an unmistakable Dominican flair to the global punk scene. Formed just over a year ago by childhood friends Cristóbal and JP (formerly of ESPÉRICLES), and powerhouse drummer Chino (Zeta), the band has quickly earned a reputation for their confrontational yet celebratory sound—and the road is where they thrive.

Following the release of “Take ’Em All,” a defiant anthem of resistance and self-determination, KRÖNA is gearing up to unveil their next single this July, giving fans another taste of Dead Air Diaries before its official drop this fall on their own Merenpón Records imprint (vinyl & digital).

Don’t miss your chance to catch one of the most electrifying new bands in punk as they bring their bold, island-fueled sound to cities across the U.S. and beyond.
