"CHEERS TO THEM ALL"
RED SNOW has evolved into one of L.A.s unique hard rock bands and continues to create music on many different levels.
If you cannot describe a Perfect Nowhere, then you should let RED SNOW just do it for you.
Ahh yes, this is the band that Pop culture will reject. Hence, the very reason why this Armenian, soul-driven hardcore rock band out of Hollywood, California gains popularity. This is not a day in age where it has to Smell Like Teen Spirit to be the shit. We’ve got the internet and MySpace whores to figure out on their own damn time what they like and dislike. You won’t know RED SNOW's soul until you meet the humble giant, Vahe Marzbetuny (also more commonly known as "V" or "The Godfather" to those close too him. He’s never quite had the break to make him the living legend that he truly may become with this rock ensemble. His electrifying riffs are what propels the very will of this band. V likes to remind me, each time we talk, usually sighing with an optimistic half full glass that things are really starting to click. Luke , " I’m really just starting to have fun. It’s taken me over 20 years to finally figure this shit out," he laughs. Backed by his brother Zareh aka "Z" on bass, Jack "Mr. White" Kurdian ..boards, Shant "Ruckus" Sarkissian drums and Narek Stepanian, "The Apprentice’s" occasional acoustic guitar, we have RED SNOW. A band that may become an Armenian Mythical Powerhouse with their Hardcore Metal sound. What’s not in, may not necessarily be out of style. RS’ originality proves that the snow everywhere else may be white, but in LA, it precipitates a particular shade of Red as our Perfect Nowhere echoes a raging sound.

VOCALIST JEZTER was awarded the Outstanding Rock Vocalist Award at the Detroit Music Awards in 2005, and has had NUMEROUS nominations with most of his previous bands as well, including Blues Vocalist, Harmonica Instrumentalist, and a few Outstanding Recording and Video nominations.
As of August 2007, JEZTER moved to Hollywood, CA to LIVE his musical dream!
Immediately he found his way on to VH1 Reality TV Show "ROCK OF LOVE"-"Charm School", with Sharon Osbourne.
And now he has found a perfect match with RED SNOW.
LEAD GUITARIST Vahe "V" Marzbetuny is often praised as a lyrical, soulful guitarist and is the heart and soul of the band. He has recorded with Serj Tankian and Arto Tuncboyadjian on the CD entitled "Serart" on a song called "Devils Wedding". Vahe along with his brother Zareh, both were members of a successful rock band in the 90's called "Mach 1." Their debut Mach 1 CD is still selling worldwide.
Vahe also produced the bands last 4 cds as Station V productions.
BASSIST Zareh Marzbetuny is a skilled bass player with a unique ability to play a wide range of styles. His crisp, round earth-shaking sound fills a room. His firm rhythm makes him one of the most in-demand bassists around. He’s a funny guy with funny things to say and plays some burnin bass riffs.
KEYBOARDIST "Mr. Jack" shows his ability to mix his assorted keyboards and synths (strings, textures, piano) in songs that are accessible yet (at times) free-flowing enough to be quasi-ambient. He has brought a unique style of his own to Red Snow.
Returning back to Red Snow for 2009 is a familiar face.
DRUMMER Shant "Ruckus" Sarkissian adds an incredible rhythmic backbone. He has a knack for placing the right sound in the right places. His use of space and his energy is amazing. Another fine example of a drummer whos playing is complete self-expression.
Narek Stepanian is a very talented bass and guitar player/songwriter who currently plays bass in the band "Non-EyE. He is an important figure on the upcoming E.P
Chris Daniel is a rapidly growing drummer in the music scene. His versatility on both drum set and percussion have made him an in demand player for live and in the studio.
***Chris Daniel recorded all the drums for the upcoming RS release.
His current projects include VISA & Chameleon Conductor respectively.
In 2004/2005 Red Snow released 2 self-produced EPs with acclaimed vocalist LaLa Avedis. Showtime Motel, was nominated for Best Rock Album at the Armenian Music Awards in 2004. Dragonfly (2005) received rave reviews and earned them a performance in the 2005 Armenian Music Awards at the world famous Hollywood Palladium. In 2006, They returned with the energetic "Lina Mantachian" on Vocals, and performed live at the Armenian Music Awards for the third straight year earning another nomination for Best Rock Album with the release of "Perfect Nowhere."
Red Snow performed their explosive shows at venues such as The House of Blues (On Sunset),The Key Club, The El Rey Theater, The Whisky, The Viper Room, B.B. Kings (Universal Citywalk), The Henry Fonda (Musicbox Theatre), The Roxy, Canes (San Diego) and The Knitting Factory (Hollywood). Winners of USA4real Radio’s "Best Live Performance" of 2007.
Currently, RED SNOW is in the studio recording new material with
PRODUCER Levon Sultanian "(Abloom,Onesidezero) brings his style/expertice to the table for Red Snow

examine every second of every song over the past year or so.. and without a doubt has helped us to achieve what we set out to do from the beginning".
