A Nite Out Session by Slingshot Productions
We cater for the diverse musical tastes of mzantsi and we don’t discriminate against talent, that’s why we urge you to go out and spend – A Nite Out With RedHOUSE.
The 411 on the band: The band, RedHOUSE, has built up a reputation across South Africa as one of the most talented, energetic, spectacular and loudest rock bands to ever grace the stages of the local pub, club and musi…
c festival scene and, through their constant gigging and the much anticipated release of their debut album, their legion of fans is increasing exponentially. They are, in the eyes of many, the most entertaining live act this country has to offer. Now, with an unplugged feature at The Nite Out Session, they have a whole new dimension to reveal to their fans & anyone new to their sound.
Formed in 1999, RedHOUSE is led by lead guitarist & vocalist Ross Meintjes, his younger brother & drummer Brendon Meintjes, and long-time best friend, bass guitarist & backing vocalist Everett Montague. The band’s sound, style and stage act is a direct result of eating & breathing Rock ‘n Roll from a very young age. The boys knew that by combining their influences in their own inimitable way, they would be onto a good thing. Little did they know that they were, in fact, onto a great thing!
Over the years they have played at pubs, clubs & some of the country’s top & popular festivals such as Woodstock, Southern Cross & Splashy Fen, where their performances generated such hype that the band were asked to record their single “Killer” for the C-Weed compilation album. At the 2003 Splashy Fen Music Festival they were voted the best up-and-coming band, an honour which allowed the band to perform twice that weekend, both times in front of a packed crowd.
Under the guidance of Authentic Ideas and newly appointed manager Craig Engelbrecht, RedHOUSE have completed their debut album. Entitled “Old School”, the record boasts 10 solid tracks & features the production talents of the legendary David Birch, as well as those of Ruben Thomas, a young German producer who is fast becoming one the most sought-after producers in South Africa. After spending three straight days in the studio, RedHOUSE embarked on a serious of successful tours to Gauteng & the Eastern Cape, playing at, amongst other shows, the massive Rock Concert 7 at Carnival City.
