Red Line

Collectively, the members of Red Line have almost 100 years experience of live performance. This experience translates into a great understanding as to what the audience wants to hear, and how to keep them engaged. Lead singer Greg Russell has a unique ability to involve the crowd, and his enthusiasm is contagious. There is great rapport among the musicians, and they all have fun, with themselves and the crowd The musicianship is excellent and effortless. Red Line literally plays all genres of rock country and beach. Not many bands have this flexability. This band has played venues ranging from family friendly resorts, Relay For Life events, to biker bars and large country honky tonks. The members have played a variety of styles in other bands. They have participated in metal bands, beach bands, classic rock bands, alternative rock, and even some blue grass inluences. Greg and Mike played together in a rock band back in the '80s, and have played with each other on and off for years, while playing with others as well. Greg could never be still, always playing rock or country somewhere, and Mike played extensively with a beach band. JJ, the baby of the group, grew up in a musical family, and was a prodegy. He was an accomplished musician by his teenage years, and was recruited by Greg early on. JJ also plays in a metal band, which finished second nationally on MTV's battle for Ozzfest. Bill joined Red Line in 2006 as a fill-in bass player, and has been there ever since. He had worked with or known all the guys previously from different projects. Bill was playing rhythm and keyboards in another band when recruited, which he still does time to time.
