The Alaska Trap is an alternative rock band formed in London, comprising of Jon (lead singer, guitar player, and songwriter), Jamie (bassist), and James (drummer). The band's journey began when Jon and James joined forces before later recruiting Jamie to complete their lineup.

Inspired by the rock and emo sounds of the 2000s and 2010s, The Alaska Trap draws influences from bands like Paramore, Snow Patrol, Don Broco, and Deaf Havana. Their music reflects the raw emotions and energetic spirit of these genres, combining catchy melodies with introspective lyrics.
