Video Interview: The Red Light Sting

Words: Zed • Posted pre-2010

 

I mean, how could we not love The Red Light Sting? As a band they are captivating, their fusion of punk rock intensity, jazz complexity and the basic principle of having fun is what makes their sound so desirable. As people, these five guys (and gal) carry a light-hearted humor with them that is, while not always understood, hilarious. Check the Red Light Sting out, and we promise, you'll find yourself head over heels.
