Biography
The band began when guitarist Chris Martin and drummer Omar Zori played a cover of Ozzy Osbourne's 'Crazy Train' at a talent show in high school. They played along with guitarist Brandon White and bassist Josh White. After the show, Martin and Zori decided to further enhance both their skill levels and styles of playing by learning a lot more songs. They got together with bassist Jesse Awram, and together they learned songs by various bands including AC/DC, Metallica and The Offspring. Unfortunately (for the band), Awram got an out-of-town job, and it was back to sqaure one.

A friend of Zori's, Ariel Irwanto, was soon recruited to play guitar as well. Irwanto's style of playing was heavily influenced by John Frusciante, Synester Gates and Jimmy Page. After developing some musical chemistry, the search for a singer began. Chris Burford proved to be the man for the job as his style of singing is based on the vocal talent of 90's singers such as Raine Maida and Rivers Cuomo.

Despite not yet having a bassist, the band opened a show for another local band, Citizen Erased (www.myspace.com/citizenerasedmusic), on March 10th, 2008. This show took place at the University of Windsor's pub (The Basement). They received mostly positive reviews. Shortly after that first show, Jaclyn Slaney joined the band to provide her incredible opera-style singing along with Burford's alternative style of singing. As it currently stands, Red Tide is:

Chris Burford: Vocals, Bass
Jaclyn Slaney: Vocals
Ariel Irwanto: Guitar
Chris Martin: Guitar
Omar Zori: Drums
