After being individually involved with various bands, Redmaxx started making a collective noise in the summer of 1999, initially taking their cues for sound and attitude from the more independently minded areas of alternative and punk, they soon began to adopt a wider field of influence and develop their own unique, tuneful and energy-charged sound.Over the band's career, they have frequented venues such as Camden Underworld, The Garage, The Bull & Gate, Dublin Castle and Harlow Square, as well as developing a loyal following in and around their home area. Their recorded output has gained airplay from XFM as well as local radio, and has been keenly received by critics.In 2004, the band released their first full length CD, "Startyourownriot" on their own label. In the interim time, their current line up of Gavin McCann (guitars and vocals), Simon Hinksman (drums and backing vocals) and Alan Cowley (bass and backing vocals) have continued to build on their reputation as a frenetic live act.The band have now finished a new mini album entitled "Complaint Rock", released on CD and via iTunes on August 22nd 2009. Live shows will accompany the release.
