Considered by fans & music critics alike as one of the few authentic Dub/Reggae groups to come out of Australia, THE RED-EYES are an 11-piece monster band that has been shaking foundations around the country with their heavyweight bass & mind-altering Dub sound. Since their inception in 2002 THE RED-EYES have played hundreds of shows including festivals such as Merideth, Bellingen Global Carnival, Earthcore & The Pyramid Rock Festival, plus supported the likes of The Mad Professor, Salmonella Dub, Black Seeds & The Resin Dogs. These shows have received glowing reviews, often claiming that THE RED-EYES explosive live show has eclipsed the main act. During this the band has found time to record two E.Ps. The first, 'HIGH PLACE', was released mid 2004 to critical acclaim (every track an absolute gem....The Brag), and received solid airplay both in Australia & N.Z. This led to Triple J listing the band as one of their 'Next Crop' artists & featuring THE RED-EYES live to air performance from the Merideth Music Festival. 'HIGH PLACE' has sold over 2000 copies and in 2005 THE RED-EYES released a double A-side E.P 'PROLIFIC/MY KINGDOM' on their own Echofoxtrot label with national distribution via MGM. This also received glowing reviews (sheer brilliance....Beat, musically rich & beautifully produced....In The Mix). THE RED-EYES promoted this release live over summer 2005/06 with show stopping appearances at the Peatts Ridge Festival (10th Dec. N.S.W.) & Woodford Folk Festival (27th Dec. - 1st Jan. 2006) followed with an East Coast in January. This tour was followed with another East Coast tour in early/mid 2006 finishing with an appearance at the Great Escape Festival in Sydney on Sat 15th April. The rest of the year has seen the band gigging and in the studio working furiously at the debut album RUDE WORLD which is due out in November 2006. This is to be accompanied with a national tour over November and December and the band will sure to be seen over the summer festival season of 2006/07.
