The Underdog EP

Formed as high school kids in Jacksonville, Florida and named after their favorite drinking game, dynamic power-punkers Yellowcard soon outgrew their hometown and spread their wings for Southern California, where they've already staked their claim on a new coast and are now setting their sites on the rest of the world.

Yellowcard, who meld numerous and sometimes surprising styles - hardcore, melodic, at times acoustic - cut their teeth on the 2002 Warped Tour, where they were undoubtedly the only punk band with a violinist.
