The Sound
Drawing from a wide range of influences from punk rock to power pop, Everything On Red’s songs combine crunching guitars, sweeping synths and heartfelt vocals to create a rich, diverse sound. Vocal duties are split between the three members, who each contribute their own songs to the band’s body of work.

The Shows
Everything On Red plays regular headline shows and has also played in the... main support slot for touring bands such as ‘Hadouken’, ‘Twin Atlantic’ and ‘Lights Action’. The band has completed several full UK tours, playing venues such as the Dublin Castle, Liverpool’s Cavern Club and Manchester Academy 3.

The Releases
The band’s debut album ‘Rotator’ was released in physical and digital formats in November 2009 to widespread acclaim, and is available to buy directly from the band at shows, as well as via on-line outlets such as Amazon, i-Tunes and the band’s own on-line store. As part of the promotion of the release, a video was made for the track ‘Hearts’ which was featured on the ‘Lava TV’ channel. The band has recently recorded the follow-up, a six track mini-album entitled ‘Songs for Sirens’, which is due for a winter 2011 release through Lockjaw Records.

The Band
Front-man Alex James brings his distinctive guitar playing and lead vocals. Synthesizer player and backing vocalist, Tomas Brown incorporates his classical piano background with progressive influences and a desire to push the creative boundaries of the band. Tomas’s synth bass sounds combine with James Rathmell’s drumming to form a taut, driving rhythm section, while James also provides harmonies to Alex’s lead vocal.
