Jamie Winpenny (founding member of Red Session) brings his writings and music to Aina Kai Studios, and along with band mates and friends has begun to create new works combining elements of rock, ska, jazz, blues, country and rice, with a side of kim chee and double scoop macaroni salad.
Why this name?
It's a rhetorical social comment on the human condition in the new millenium. Our second choice for a name was "Pink Floyd". Our Producer wanted to avoid confusion during Press conferences.
Do you play live?
Yes we play live, and normally half dead. Generally in the Honolulu area, with occasional side trips to the outer islands or the 48 colonies. Love those frequent flyers!
How, do you think, does the internet (or mp3) change the music industry?
Less shoplifting at Tower Records. Record executives now having regular bowel movements.
Would you sign a record contract with a major label?
Can I write the contract?
Band History:
Nine years, 3 bands, and 10,000 miles later, Jamie Winpenny (founding member of "Red Session") returns to Hawaii and the Orphanage Studios (louder and better than ever) with his newest studio project "Playing In Traffic". The CD takes the distinct sounds of reggae, rock, folk, and ska, and blends them into a sound uniquely their own.
Jamie is an award winning author, is a regular music contributor to several local publications, a gifted lyricist, and has shared the stage with bands such as Reel Big Fish, Fishbone, Hepcat, Buck-O-Nine, Mighty Mighty Bosstones, and the Toasters. He has been heavily influenced by the likes of Paul Simon, Joe Walsh and Eric Clapton. His lyrics are generally very personal, and have a lot to do with what he calls "karmic retribution".
