REDEYE EMPIRE

REDEYE EMPIRE is breaking out of Canada in 2010 with an international Rock/ Reggae/Pop vibe. Their third studio album, SEA TO SKY, is named for the highway that runs between Vancouver and Whistler, the hometowns of co-lead vocalists/guitarists Gabe Davis and Mike Redmond. The album, set for release January 26 via 29 Records, will coincide with a U.S. tour as sole support for G. Love & Special Sauce. With a major fan base already in Canada, the band is set to take on the U.S. in 2010.

Friends since high school, Gabe and Mike put the band together in Vancouver, BC in 2005. SEA TO SKY is the bands most sophisticated work to date. The 11-track set was produced by Ben Kaplan (Shakira, Chevelle) and was recorded at GGGarth Richardson’s studio in Vancouver (Red Hot Chili Peppers, RATM).  

REDEYE EMPIRE’s live show is generating massive buzz and earning the respect of fans and the industry. They’ve shared the stage with Slightly Stoopid, Fishbone, Pepper, G Love, Xavier Rudd, and Michael Franti & Spearhead, among others.

In 2007, REDEYE EMPIRE toured the U.S. supporting G. Love & Special Sauce, playing sold-out shows in major U.S. markets. Upon returning from the tour, the band immediately started working on their sophomore album with producers Chris D (Ben Harper, Jack Johnson, G.Love) and Ben Kaplan, recording the follow-up to their self-titled debut album. The Diary Of Everett Miley was released in early 2008 and named in honor of their tour bus driver, a Vietnam POW with one hell of a story.

In 2008, REDEYE EMPIRE completed a second U.S. tour with Vans Warped Tour headliners Pepper, in support of The Diary Of Everett Miley. The band once again played to sold-out and screaming crowds at venues from California to Connecticut.
