Red is an American rock band known for infusing their sound with a blend of heavy alternative rock, post-grunge, and symphonic elements, generating a distinct and emotionally charged soundscape. Formed in Nashville, Tennessee, in 2002, the band originally consisted of brothers Anthony and Randy Armstrong, alongside lead vocalist Michael Barnes and drummer Andrew Hendrix, who was later replaced by Dan Johnson. Their music frequently engages with themes of pain, struggle, and faith, offering a cathartic experience for listeners.

Over the years, Red has built a dedicated fan base and has made significant strides in the rock music scene, with several of their albums receiving critical acclaim. "Declaration," released in 2020, pushed the boundaries of their already dynamic sound and showcased their maturity and evolution as a band. Beyond full albums, Red has released hard-hitting singles and EPs such as "The Evening Hate" and its alternative version, both exhibiting the band's signature blend of aggressive riffs and melodic storytelling. Their anniversary deluxe edition of "Innocence and Instinct" rekindled the powerful themes of their earlier work, reminding fans of the band's enduring impact on the rock genre. Whether delivering raw unplugged performances like "Until We Have Faces Live and Unplugged" or exploring new sonic territories, Red's artistic journey is marked by a tireless dedication to exploring the depth of human emotion through music.
