Red Kid
Red Kid :
Sound like:
Indefatigable pop rock mixed with earworm melodies to give a strong new wave rock sound with a hint of ska and funk.
Influences:
Red Hot Chili Peppers, Rolling Stones, The Strokes, James Brown, David Bowie and ‘The Spiders From Mars’ and Madness.
The band:
Founded in 2003, they have a shoeless craz’d front-man, a busker from the streets of Barcelona, a drummer with a wacky style of beats, one Beatle-esk Liverpool rocker and a giant of a bass player.
Album called :
“Nobody told me”
Recorded over the past 13 months in Pulse Studios Dublin. Tony Perry and Billy Farrell recorded and produced.
Showcasing:
Dublin Ireland(March), Germany(April 12th) and London(April). See website for all details. www.redkid.info
What we’ve done:
We have been short listed by O2 for their Making Waves new acts of 2007.
Our single “Rocket ship”(a radio release only), has made the play-lists on all sorts of radio stations from national to underground, and it is already picking up interest from across the waters in the USA. Hot Press tipped it for single of the fortnight.
We’ve played shows in Germany, Switzerland, Spain, UK, Italy. Last year we played festivals such as the Hard Working Class Heroes, and “mantua” with more planned for 2007.
Our music has also been used in the movie “The Silver Surf safari”, due for release 2007. An extreme sports documentary on canoeing and Kayaking. TV ads for Bend in the River wine and “Top up Magazine” launch.
We’d love you to get on board.
Thanks for listening.
Red Kid.
