Little Red

3 or 4 years ago, Little Red started out in Ivanhoe, Melbourne playing what they beautifully termed  "ecstatic music for troubled times". Talk of their high energy and oh-so-cute live show spread annd soon word of mouth saw them pack 400 people into the tote for every week of a two month midweek residency at the legendary Tote. It was enough for the often scathing local critic Clem Bastow to pronounce them ‘pretty much the best band in Melbourne at the moment.’

Within months they self released a tinny, garage pop album, full of doo-wop harmonies and twee romanticism called Listen To Little Red. Personally I thought it was kinda corny but it was promptly featured on Triple J, recieved universal acclaim and high profile support and festival gigs. What would I know anyway!?

Now, they've grown up a little, the band have enjoyed a phalanxe of side-projects and returned a little slicker, a little sexier and if the first single is an indication, the best damn pop-smarts in this country.

Ladies and Gentleman, its time so say hello to Australia's newest crossover indie superstars, Little Red are going to be huge.
