Rain City Drive is an American rock/post-hardcore band from Sacramento, California, United States, formed in 2014 under the name Slaves.
They released three studio albums, "Through Art We Are All Equals" on June 24, 2014, "Routine Breathing" on August 21, 2015 and "Beautiful Death" on February 16, 2018 with founding member and original lead vocalist Jonny Craig.
On January 24, 2019, the band announced that Jonny Craig was removed from the band citing his addictions. He was replaced by NBC's The Voice runner-up Matt McAndrew, with whom they released their fourth studio album, "To Better Days" on August 7, 2020. Prior to the album's release, on June 25, 2020, the band announced that it would be their final release under the name Slaves, stating that "As obstinate supporters of the BLM movement, we cannot continue to tie our music and our positive message to a word associated with such negative weight and hurt."
On October 15, 2021, the band announced that they had changed their name to Rain City and signed to independent record label Thriller Records. However, the band later opted to be known as Rain City Drive due to unforeseen circumstances and to avoid future problems.
