Biography
Red Leaves formed in 2004 in Austin. Between 2004-2009 the band self-released 4 EPs and 1 Full Length Album.
“Often, you’ll find a dark and dissonant vibe in the sound of Austin low-fi indie trio Red Leaves, but they’ve got a knack for keeping it uptempo with surprising rhythm. There’s something infectious about melodic arrangements with a sharp post-punk attitude, conveying emotion without getting too sappy. Expect great things from this band…”
– KUT 90.5 FM: Texas Music Matters, September 2008
“… lo-fi trembling synth melodies and jaunty calculated guitar stabs… Lujan’s vocals are urgent and pleading, juxtaposed nicely with fellow singer Singer’s airy chants of reassurance… the dark and lively soundscapes Red Leaves weave remain fresh and poignant like old love letters to someone you still hold the flame for.”
– Austin Independent Magazine, March 2007
“All the Zombies blends Cureish singing with muffled, lo-fi guitar pop…”
-Joe Gross, XL Magazine, July 2006
With their most recent release in November of 2009 of EP “Trouble in the City of Water”, the band plans on a Texas tour late Spring of 2010, and have plans to record a fourth EP by the summer.
