Biography

edit

Earthride formed in 2000 after the demise of Dave Sherman's previous band, Spirit Caravan. They released their self-titled EP the same year on their own Earth Brain label. They recorded their next release, 2005 Vampire Circus, with Corrosion of Conformity's Mike Dean acting as producer.[2] It was released on Southern Lord Records. Five years later they followed with their third album, Something Wicked, which was also released by Southern Lord.[3]

In 2007, Land o Smiles Records re-released Earthride's self-titled debut EP on 10" vinyl. In the same year, Dave Sherman, Eric Little, Greg Lynn Ball and Edmund Allan Brown recorded a new single on Salt of the Earth Records.

In November 2017, Earthride toured with Buzzov-en. At a stop in Dayton, Ohio, they were joined by Funeral Moon.
