Red Giant

Red Giant have swiftly carved out a name for themselves as one of the UK’s most formidable emerging blues rock bands. Formerly known as The Dave Simpson Trio, the band underwent a rebrand to reflect a fresh creative direction—anchored by Dave Simpson’s songwriting, commanding guitar and vocal presence, John Joe Gaskin’s powerhouse drumming, and the dynamic interplay of bassists Johnny Simpson and Keira Kenworthy. This reinvention has seen Red Giant refine their distinct sound, earning them a dedicated following among blues rock and rock enthusiasts alike.

The band’s impressive musicianship and onstage chemistry have been on display at live music venues such as Backstage in Kinross, United Kingdom, where Red Giant have recently headlined shows. Their engaging gigs capture the raw energy and authenticity that define the modern blues rock movement. The current catalogue includes tracks like "Don’t", "Free Me", "Friends", and "Monsters", all leading up to their self-titled album, "Red Giant", set for release on 18 October 2024. This anticipated album continues to showcase the band’s evolution and mastery of their genre.

For listeners in search of genuine, high-energy blues rock, Red Giant offer an invigorating concert experience and a catalogue that pays homage to tradition while pushing into new sonic territories.
