Biography
Embrace was short-lived band from Washington, DC, who existed from 1985 until 1986. The group consisted of Ian MacKaye (vocals), Chris Bald (bass), Michael Hampton (guitar), and Ivor Hansen (drums). The latter 3 members had previously performed in the Faith which was fronted by Ian's brother, Alec MacKaye. Embrace played only 11 shows but split just as they were preparing to play a gig in Boston, a result of band not practicing while Ian was out in England for a few weeks. In 1987, Dischord Records issued a posthumous LP.
