About Me

The Red River of the North is the only river in the US that runs from south to north. That’s a good analogy for RED RIVER. We tend to do things against the grain. We are a rock/country/alt country/folk/light rock/pop band from west of the Mississippi River in Minnesota, by way of Maui, Hawaii.You never know what kind of song you’ll hear from us next. And even we don’t know. We like it to be a surprise. retro layout powered by HOT / MyHotComments
