A group made up of brothers and childhood friends

A group made up of brothers and childhood friends, Run The Red Light formed on the notion of pushing each other past their inhibitions. The result merges the intensity of heavy riff-rock with the sensibility of atmospheric brit-pop. The band’s upcoming debut EP was recorded live off the floor at Supernatural Sound Studios near Portland, Oregon. Vocals and finishing touches were added in the band’s studio space in Vancouver, Canada. Before recording was complete, an early mix of Run The Red Light’s track “In Too Far” won a Lennon Award for Rock song of the year in the international John Lennon Songwriting Contest. Following a a sold-out local CD release party at the legendary Richards On Richards in Vancouver and several regional tours, the group supported Stone Temple Pilots at Save on Foods Arena in Victoria, Canada at the end of 2009. The debut EP will be available worldwide on iTunes and a range of digital carriers in January 2010.
