Music News: The Red Eyes hit the road

 
Posted on February 3 2010
As Melbourne’s celebrated Dub/Reggae band The Red Eyes gear up for the release of a blockbuster second album, the 7-piece hit the road to launch their new single, a cover of Talking Heads 1983 release I Get Wild / Wild Gravity from their album Speaking in Tongues.

This is a first time cover recording for The Red Eyes and the song was an easy choice for the band who count Talking Heads as up among the top of their varied list of musical influences.

The tempo and style of the track lends itself to the Dub/Reggae groove of The Red Eyes and the song has quickly become a crowd pleaser in their massive live show.

Vocally it was an instant fit with lead singer El Witeri, who also relates to the intricate lyrics. Much has been written about Talking Heads’ songs in an attempt to demystify the message and this song is a classic example of their ability to use innuendo to illuminate the inner workings of the mind. Ultimately, it’s a song about unleashing the wild primal side of civilized man and getting wild... something that The Red Eyes are becoming increasingly renowned for, both on and off stage!

I Get Wild / Wild Gravity will give fans and audiences a little taster from the soon to be released 2nd album, set to eclipse their hugely successful debut album release Rudeworld (2007).

The track will be officially launched in March with a 2 night stand at The Beach Hotel in Byron Bay – the boys are back by popular demand following their epic shows at Woodford Folk Festival and Byron Bay this NYE ‘09/10. Prior to this the band will also head off on a short national tour with New Zealand’s The Black Seeds before returning to their home town of Melbourne to gear up for their National Album Launch Tour in May/June ’10.

TOUR DATES ARE:

Fri 12 Mar: The Corner Hotel, Melbourne, Vic
Sat 13 Mar: Fly By Night, Perth, WA
Thu 18 Mar: The Hi Fi, Brisbane, QLD
Fri 19 Mar: The Metro, Sydney, NSW
Sat 20 Mar: The Beach Hotel, Byron Bay, NSW
Sun 21 Mar: The Beach Hotel, Byron Bay, NSW

Every Time I DieMy Festival Experience
Every Time I Die


Your most memorable Festival moment or experience?
Download in 2005. it was such a great vibe the entire day and people seemed to really get into our set

Favourite Artist you’ve seen at a Music Festival?
when I was younger all I did was listen to bad religion so when I finally got to see them on a warped tour it was life changing.

What’s your ideal Festival line-up?
4 bands, 20 minute sets, free nachos and beer

What are your tips for attending Music Festivals?
Pace yourself. When we played ozzfest in 2004 there were dudes getting kicked out for being too drunk at 11am. You bought the ticket, at least take the ride
