Melbourne outfit RED INK have made a true rock star entrance on the local music scene, already having played shows alongside Biffy Clyro (US), Miami Horror and British India (to name a few). They’ve been climbing radio airwaves and tearing roofs from the rafters off venues around the country. Their loud hook-laden rock is hard to ignore.
Singles 'Audrey', ‘Catching a Killer’ - a track mixed by Barney Barnicott (Kasabian, Muse, Lily Allen, Arctic Monkeys) – and 'Battlescars' have each received heavy national airplay and media acclaim (“Acts like RED INK remind me why Australian independent music is the best in the world.” The AU Review).
A year of constant touring in 2010 has cemented RED INK as ‘the one to watch’. With a killer live show, “watch” is the operative word. RED INK have won over tastemaker crowds at hyped guerrilla performances and festivals including Peats Ridge, Stereosonic, Playground Weekender and Hot BBQ. And word is spreading fast. Love has been rolling in from fans across Eastern Europe, UK and the United States.
The latest single, ‘What My Friends Say’ captures the infectious energy of the band onstage and delivers a maturity and depth in song writing. The lyrics weave a tale of heartache and confusion. Already a hit amongst RED INK’s live audiences, ‘What My Friends Say’ is destined to explode out of radio speakers.
RED INK will spend most of 2011 out on the road, playing headline shows and festivals around the country. They also join the national Rock The Schools tour throughout June and July. Check out www.schoolstouraustralia.com.au for details.
Stay tuned for a stellar debut record later this year through Shock. It will be hard to miss!
As a special gift from the band, ‘What My Friends Say’ is available for a limited time as a FREE download from www.facebook.com/redinkmusic.

These guys are musicians, good ones. And over the last four years they have proved that they are here to do the yards. Their hundreds of gigs across the country and thousands of hours crafting their sound have paid off in the form of an underground following strong across Australia and sinking its claws in across the world. They have found a sound which is uniquely theirs and defies conformity along clichéd genre lines. .. On the verge of dropping their debut EP we’ve been craving, RED INK have given us a first taste of what is to come with their new single ..Catching a Killer... It is 3 minutes of violence, pop and adrenaline, with a chorus that will jam through your mind for days. The slurred audacity of John Jakubenko’s vocals takes your mind straight back to your craziest house party and that teetering feeling that things could get out of control – but no matter what you’re gonna have a blast. .. Catching a Killer has already been proved to choke up dance floors of basement bars across Aus, but before it’s release had already sparked controversy. The song comes from RED INK’s experiences of street violence in Melbourne, and along with a poster of the boys acting out a brawl was interpreted by some as ‘pro-violence’, leading to boycott calls and posters being ripped from venue walls. “We are in no way pro-violence” says front man John, “but we are for representing the truth of the streets of Melbourne and we don’t apologise for it’s ugliness shaping our music”. .. The track was recorded in Melbourne by Forrester Savell and mixed in the U.K by Barny (who has previously mixed for Kasabian, Muse, Lily Allen, Arctic Monkeys) and is fit to hit international airwaves. RED INK have a hungry European fan base and are being featured regularly on influential blogs across the UK, US and Europe; in Aus they have shared stages with British India, Calling all Cars, Miami Horror, Children Collide, Wolf & Cub and deluged the summer festival circuit. So with their fans hungry and an EP loaded with hits, it looks like these boys from Frankston, Australia are in for the ride of their lives. .. .. .. .... .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .... .. .. .. .. ..LINKS.... ....HUFFER.. - ..LEE COOPER.. - ..REDINK BLOG.. - ..REDINK TWITTER.. - ..REDINK FACEBOOK.. - ..REACH OUT.. - ..SHE IS FRANK.. - ..SWELLNET.. - ..MESS+NOISE.... .. .. ....Bands/DJ's/Producers we've slaughtered stages with.... ....
