Hey! Thanks for checking us out. We're an American roots-based rock band out of Minneapolis, Minnesota. We've been together since 2004, and put out a self-titled CD in 2005. We're currently working on a whole new batch of originals that we hope to have out in 2008. A little background for ya: We formed in the fall of 2004 from the remnants of a couple of bands. The Beer Police, and Leash. Mike Fretheim, the singer/guitarist from the Beer Police, and Travis Williams, the singer/guitarist from Leash, are the only remaining original members in Red Dot Garage. We now have a bassist, Tom Dainsberg, who joined us in the fall of 2005, and our new drummer, Tommy Lutz, who joined in the spring of 2007. Our lineup finally solid, and fully rehearsed, we've started hitting the road hard in the summer of 07. We play bars, clubs, outdoor festivals, private parties, and corporate gigs. Our playlist consists of about 400 songs, and we will play either all electric, or acoustic as well. Our website is www.reddotgarage.com, where you can check out our song list, schedule, news, etc. See you at the rock show!
