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 an alt country/roots/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.
I'm A FAWM Believer - March 6, 2010
FAWM stands for February Album Writing Month. The purpose of FAWM is to write, write, write. In fact, the goal is to write 14 songs in 28 days (thus, an album).
Think it's easy? Ha! It's hard! But I did it this year! In fact, I wrote 16 songs in 28 days. FAWM also offers file hosting (for a small donation to the site), so I did really bad acoustic recordings of my songs, and uploaded them to the FAWM site. The comments were so encouraging. It's a whole bunch of songwriters, just trying their best to hone their skills, and I can't say enough about what participating has done for my self-esteem!
Best of all, one of my songs will become part of the Red River repertoire!

New Year - New Video - January 2, 2010
Happy 2010!
We thought we'd kick off the new year with something peppy, to combat those very short, but very cold, winter days.
Here's a new video of one of our oldies, but goodies, called "Triple Service". Yee-haw!
(If you scroll back, way back, in our news section, you can read the story behind the song.)
