The Riot has begun!

About Me


The only thing sexier than the chemistry between a great rock singer and his smokin lead guitar player is the chemistry between a great rock singer and her smokin female lead guitar player... and with the arrival of The Red Light Riot, there’s a new, undeniable swagger in town.
Lidia Vila of Torontoindie.com proclaims:
"Donna is the new guitar queen!
Francine is an awesome sight to behold with blasting vocals and stage presence!"

With heavy guitar riffs and soaring, ballsy vocals, Francine Scala and Donna Grantis, the songwriting core of RLR, don’t need to tell you who’s on their list of influences. It’s clear that these two cut their musical teeth on tunes by the original bad boys of rock and roll: Robert (Plant) & Jimmy (Page), Axl (Rose) & Slash, and Steven (Tyler) & Joe (Perry). At the same time, the duo adds to their original rock repertoire a dynamic which is uniquely their own.

The Red Light Riot is coming to your town.
Brace yourselves.
THE RIOT HAS BEGUN.
