Photoshoot this week!

Wed, 09 Nov 2011 00:00:00 -0800

We are excited that our new CD Room to Grow is sounding fantastic in the almost finalized mix.

Next up: the album cover art. Mark's granddaughters ages 7 mos and 3 1/2 years will be jamming in the living room on drums and vocals. Should make for an excellent and entertaining photoshoot. Aviva, the youngest offshoot, should be sporting her all-natural Mohawk 'do, and her big sister Arabella will rock the mic. She declared to us she's going to be a rock star, before we even asked her to grace our cover.

OK, then!

Room to Grow CD being mixed and Mastered!

Fri, 28 Oct 2011 00:00:00 -0700

Recording our new CD has been a kick, with Paul Schramer co-producing with Paul Turpin, genius owner of Champion St. Studios (and new dad: welcome baby Harriet, a new Offshoot if ever there was one!)

It has been fantastic to have more than enough original material for the project, and we have named it Room to Grow.

We are working on the album art now and should be mastering soon! YAY!

NEW BAND SHOOTS OFF THE OLD ONE

Mon, 25 Apr 2011 00:00:00 -0700

The Redux have blossomed into a new group doing all their own tunes: The Offshoots!

Our original songs will surely grow on you! Offshoots songs are about hope, passion, delight, bringing the shadow into the light, perseverance, love and living right now! 16 new songs headed into the studio in June...

We are eager for you to hear them before we get truly decent recordings, so we posted a few demos for you.

Enjoy!

Bunky and the Bro's

Yup, she's daring to do a set on guitar with Paul on drums and brother Mark on bass. Should be fun! Paul has become quite the drummer since Justin gave his father his drumset - the living room just gets more exciting!

Time to perform...see ya May 8th!

Rock the BUS!

Mon, 22 Feb 2010 00:00:00 -0800

We are gleefully rehearsing our hardest rocking, most soulful & fun songs to create a set that will sizzle for our Rock the Bus event April 1 at the Fairhaven Pub and Martini Bar with The Walrus and DJ Yogoman!

30 years ago March 19, the band began in Friday Harbor...

Yea, amazing how much fun we've had!
Tim is doing the Chuckanut Radio Hour and raising two amazing redheaded kids.
Justin just turned 33. Lives in Portland, and plays guitar bass and drums in a new band called Brown Sound, but he's coming up to Bellingham for the Ducks/Redux 30th anniversary.
Dr. Jimmy resurrecting ridiculous and sublime old tunes for his boat house pahtay/reunion potluck.
Lauralee got herself an accordian, lord help us!
She's headed to visit family in Hamburg.
Bunky feels age 33 internally and still believes in her power to rawk people the fug out!
Paul has been inspired to play more often and more intensely after seeing Zappa plays Zappa in Jan.
Arf.
Mark is a grandpa now and jammed on bass with us as his 1 year old grandaughter shook the tambourine and tried out the mike.
