About Me

MyGen Profile Generator
*Welcome to the Official MySpace page for Huntington,WV indie/alt experimental outfit Red Velvet. The group is made up of brothers Jordan (bass/vox) and Jonathan Jefferson (drums/vox), along with allies Mark Davis (guitar) and Russ Fox (guitar/vox). The Red Velvet showcases spacious, beautifully charged music that ranges between dramatic and cathartic. After forming and releasing a short run of demo EPs in 2006, the group buckled down over the next year and began crafting and recording their 1st full length debut album "Lights Won't Go Out". The album is a web of multiple tunings and punchy rhythms that collide with classic walls of clean vs' fuzzy driven guitars. Their beats are at times dance infused and on-token unique. Red Velvet fabricates a clever balance of intense songwriting and sharp arrangements that are bound together by strong, distinctive pop laden vocal hooks. "Lights Won't Go Out" is like a blood rush of energy and airiness combined. Available Now on Broadmoor Recording! Check calendar for live updates. Thanks for stopping by!
REVIEWS:
"Beautiful and Saccharine Sweet" - (On Tap Magazine)
"The sound is clean and clear, every instrument, every voice distinct and well balanced. The songs are bright, uplifting, and affirming" - (Tone and Groove)
"Soaring melodic shoegaze-flaked powerpop with tight triple threat vocal delivery" - (The Gazz)
