What exactly is Reckless Red?
It began as an online conversation between singer CJ Nicolai and drummer John Ware about art and gratification. And it grew into grew into a band that plays loose and rude, expecting the unexpected from each other.
That band is Reckless Red -- home for CJ's throaty, un-girly pipes that wreck all your "girl singer" notions ...and also home for a handful of players from the heartland and both coasts who bring together all the right spices of blues and country.
The band cooks up a swampy, musclebound sound that's brewed from a lifetime of experience in the studio, on giant stages, and in backwoods dives. The resulting Reckless Red soup is anything but narrow -- and it's made from
bluesy stock that's rich in the roots of Americana and never far from a raw, gritty edge.
Reckless Red's players blur traditional genre boundaries to create a simmering rock'n'roll ride, and CJ's killer voice and instincts make it burn. From rowdy drinking songs to burning ballads, their shows sweat with signature intensity ...and Reckless Red delivers.
This band learns from the past, lights up the present, and leans into the future. There's twang, there's sweat and there's slam. It's a ton of fun, but make no mistake: it's serious rock'n'roll. It's also a bit reckless ...but CJ and the guys happen to like it that way.
