Deraps is a new "Classic Rock" style young band (all in their twenties) composed of Jacob Deraps on lead guitar and lead vocals, and Josh Gallagher on drums and background vocals. Jacob was born in a small city named St-Georges, up in Québec, Canada. Josh was born in Australia and met Jacob online through their Van Halen covers on YouTube. Jacob won the Dweezil and Frank Zappa Fellowship Award in 2016 and got to play with him on stage many times, he was also featured in the official Van Halen News Deskseveral times for his accurate Van Halen covers and ability to capture Eddie Van Halen's sound and feel. In the summer of 2017, Josh flew to Québec from Perth, Australia to do a small bars and festivals tour with Jacob and that's when the band was formed. The first time Jacob and Josh ever played together was with legendary band Toto at their soundcheck, right after picking Josh up from the airport to go see Toto's concert in Montreal. In 2020, Deraps signed a worldwide record deal with German label Metalville Records and went on to release their debut album on June 17, 2022. This self-titled explosive hard rock debut album from the Canadian-Australian power trio brings together 11 songs full of energetic rock 'n' roll riffs, polished guitar solos and perfectly tuned harmony vocals.
