Biography
We'd like to introduce ourlselves, we are Rick Redington & The Luv.
Saying that once upon a time, we sat for years looking into the deeper most regions of laughing notes, fumbling harmonies, and chordal chaos, would perhaps invite the keen interest of anyone coming upon our band web sight. Perhaps we did, perhaps we didn't. Only you can ponder......
We hale from the mountains of Vermont, drive a 1970 Flxible Tour Bus, called The Luv Bus and play original roots & folk rock americana grooves.
We've recorded with legends Jorma Kaukonen & Jack Casady of Jefferson Airplane, Buddy Cage & David Nelson of New Riders of The Purple Sage. We've shared the stage with legends Ritchie Havens, The Wailers, The Samples, Cake, Warren Haynes & Govt. Mule, Joe Walsh, to name a few.
The Green Mountains of Vermont welcomes this band of gypsy souls home from the adventures of travelling near & far, from Burlington's Lake Champlain to Rochester's Seasoned Books & Bakery, to NYC & The Baggot & Maine's Sunday River, to West Virginia's Horse Farms & Michigan's Dunes, all the way to Nino's in Ohio, home of buckeyes & fiery women.
We like to play music. In particular, we like to play Rick's tunes, and we like to honor & respect all of our inspirations, with our own unique offerings of interpretation.
MTV writer, director and founder of New York Aids Film Festival and President of Girl Behind The Camera, Suzanne Africa Engo adds, "My favorite Folk-Abilly-Rasta-Jam-Rock band in the world is headed by the one and only RICK REDINGTON, his music touches my soul, and lives in my hair... I am taken to a new place every single time I hear him open his lovely mouth to sing. I adore him and that band of his is world class. LUV!LUV!"
