ASHTRAY IS FROM SANTA ROSA, CALIFORNIA, ACTIVE FROM 2002 UNTIL AT LEAST 2016, POSSIBLY STILL ACTIVE, ALTHOUGH MOST BANDS CAN'T REALLY BE TOO ACTIVE IN THE MIDST OF A MEDICAL LOCKDOWN. THEIR SOUND IS HEAVILY INFLUENCED BY BLATZ, INCLUDING THE DUELING MALE-FEMALE LEAD VOCALS, PERHAPS WITH MORE EMPHASIS ON ALCOHOLISM. THEIR LINE UP IS QUINTON ON BASS, JOE ON DRUMS, BONNIE ON GUITAR, AND DAVIE AND SARAH JANE ON LEAD VOCALS. THEY PLAYED AT THE DOWNTOWN SAN DIEGO DIY VENUE THE YARD IN 2011 OR 2012. RECORDED AT GRIZZLY STUDIOS, THIS IS A PRETTY GOOD EP FOR THOSE WHO ENJOY SNOTTY, OBNOXIOUS PUNK WITH HEAVILY PHASED GUITARS AND GRATING FEMALE VOCALS PAIRED WITH MALE VOCALS THAT GRANDMOTHERS DESCRIBE AS SOUNDING LIKE POPEYE IF HE WAS PISS-DRUNK.
