T-Rextasy formed in 2013 during their senior year of high school in New York City. In May 2016, they released Jurassic Punk, their debut full-length album on Father/Daughter Records and Miscreant Records. The record received praise from NPR, MTV, Stereogum, and a single, "Gap Yr Boiz," was featured on a Rolling Stone list as #13 on Rob Sheffield's Top 25 Songs of 2016. The "hyper-verbal rock & roll goddesses", as deemed by Sheffield, are known for their energetic live shows, wit and feminist ethos.
