[1][2][3][4] Hepcat's debut album, Out of Nowhere was released in 1993 on the New York-based ska label Moon Records.

2000 saw the release of Push n' Shove, their first album without founding members Raul Talavera and Alex Désert, although the latter appears as a guest vocalist on two tracks.

[1][2] By the early 2000s, the ska scene became oversaturated and commercially less interesting, so the band was dropped by their label.

In 2007, the long-time bassist David Fuentes died, which resulted in the band being less active again.

Trumpeter Kincaid Smith formed Soul Traffic, a five-piece funk band.
