Salivus, a thrash metal band from Monticello, IN, was founded in 2019 by lead singer and rhythm guitar player Alex Oliver.

After many attempts at finding the perfect lead guitarist, Jordan Houchen came up on Oliver’s radar.

A wanted ad for a drummer who could keep the pace drew Ahyden DeVault in, and as he ripped through the audition, both he and the rest of the guys knew, he was it.

On the search for a bass player, Lucas Welch reigned in from Ohio to test his mettle in thrash.

With this final addition, the band came to be as we know it now, the official Salivus lineup.
