Red Ink are an Australian band based on The Mornington Peninsula south of Melbourne.
We’ve been touring, writing and recording for close to a decade. In that time, we’ve played a thousand shows, written as many songs, recorded in some of the most amazing studios, slept in hundreds of hotel rooms, tour vans and hostels… We love music and that very passion has taken us some crazy places… Recently on a tour of mainland Europe, we laid our roots in Berlin and wrote/recorded our debut album. We’ve released EP’s in the past, but this record is something altogether different. It’s our baby. We’ve never been so proud to have a body of work and we’re emotionally and physically attached to the project.
Upon meeting with Aussie-turned-Berlin based producer Simon Berckelman, we’d found the final piece of the puzzle. We’ve been preparing to release this record for a long time and we’re so excited to finally have a release date in sight.
February 28, 2014. I don’t think we will ever forget that date

The band’s journey has been a somewhat chaotic one.. Aren’t they all?
With a number of the bands singles receiving national and international airplay, the we’ve clocked up close to a quarter of a million views on YouTube alone. With virtually no budget and definitely no label support.

An independent band running on the smell of an oily rag. The way it should be.

We don’t hold onto delusions of grandeur. We’re not looking to be the ‘next big thing’.. We’ve been there. We’ve been wined and dined and promised the stars but at the end of it all; none of that matters. 

All that matters is the art. And whether WE love it. And we do.
To sell a hundred records, or a hundred thousand wont change that! 
Ten years has taught us that. 

Enjoy our debut record.. It cost us everything.


Can't Stop. Won't Stop. EVER
