The Salads hail from Newmarket, Ontario, and they play punk rock with a heavy lean toward reggae, the kind of ska punk that keeps one foot on the skank and the other on the distortion pedal. They got together in 1993, and after a stretch signed to Kindling Music, a sub-division of Warner Music Canada, they moved on to run their own label, Maui Wowie Records.
Fold A to B, from 2003, is the album that got them onto rock radio, with "Get Loose", "The Roth Kung Fu" and "Unhappy" all coming off it.
