Yellowcard

A pop-punk, pop-rock band (also called Punk Revival by AOL music) with a violinist. Currently consists of Ryan Key (lead vocals,guitar), Sean Mackin (violin, vocals), Pete Mosley (vocals, guitar), Longeneiu W. Parsons III (a.k.a. LP)(drums), and the newest-- Ryan Mendez(guitar). Ryan Mendez filled in for the past guitarist, Ben Harper, a.k.a "Ben Jammin'" by fans. Not the Ben Harper some of you may know. Formed in Jacksonville, FL. All the original members went to a performing arts high school, seen in the Beyond Ocean Avenue: Live At The Electic Factory concert DVD. As a small majority of people know, Yellowcard has been around since 1997, and released their first CD, "Midget Tossing" which is now out of print. All their CDs have been on indie-labels until Ocean Avenue.

Don;t listen to the hate-definitions. They're not definitions, just idiots spreading their opinion (which yes, they are 'entitled' to...). I'm here to give you the story.
