Ratings Guide

Punk-pop quintet Yellowcard formed in Jacksonville, Florida in 1997, but didn't solidify their lineup until a move to Southern California in early 2000. Comprised of vocalist/guitarist Ryan Key, vocalist/violinist Sean Mackin, guitarist Ben Harper, drummer Longineu Parsons, and bassist Alex Lewis, the band officially debuted on wax in 2001 with One for the Kids (Lobster), and returned a year later with the Underdog EP for Fueled by Ramen. 2003 was a really big year for the group; it saw them signing with Capitol, issuing Ocean Avenue on the label, and heading out for a series of Warped Tour dates. Fall and winter found Yellowcard hitting clubs with acts like Matchbook Romance and Less Than Jake.
