Relative Ash

Formed in Chicago during 1996, the alternative metal group Relative Ash included vocalist Marcus Harrington along with guitarists Carlos Salazar and Junior Antunez, bassist Chuck Ford, and drummer John Salazar. Local success in their home city led to opening slots on the 1998 Warped tour and the 1999 X Games tour; subsequently, the band inked a deal with Island and released their first album, Our Time With You..., during the summer of 2000.
