A blue sky turns Blood Red

About Me


Red Sky Rising is the brainchild of Red:Star*. It stems from personal and social experiences that have affected him deeply, and a desire to express teh union of Organic and Electronic.
After watching the band that he was in crumble and wither before his eyes, Red:Star* started Red Sky Rising in winter, 1998. .Shortly before Red Sky Rising took the stage in 2006, Red:Star* enlisted the help of close compatriot and High school friend Ian Powell, who had been engaging in Music Endeavors of his own.This was quoted from Red:Star* in an interview about the band done by -Our World- Press.OWP: What exactly is Red Sky Rising?Red:Star* : Well, in this medium of expression, I hope to take the emotion from my life...the lives of many, as a matter of fact, and place it on a pedestal, one person's rage, sadness, fear, drive, destiny, placed on display. This done in the hopes that as I look back to this, that someone can use it to cross the divide that I cross.OWP: OK, we have a gun to the band's head...what does it mean to you?Red:Star* : This outlet means the world to me, as it is finally a place where I can display the feelings within a life that aren't all slang or stereotypes...real feelings, real thoughts, real music.(Text Proof written and checked by Regan L.
