In an electrifying surge of creativity, the Southern rock band Robert Jon & The Wreck have released their most ambitious project yet, Red Moon Rising.This ground-breaking album is a bold declaration of evolution and rebirth, capturing the essence of the band's transformative years and setting a new course for their musical odyssey.
The album's lead single and title track, "Red Moon Rising," emerges as a beacon of this new era. With its funk-infused rhythms and thought-provoking lyrics, the song represents a slight departure from the band's traditional sound. Their frontman Robert Jon says, "Red Moon Rising” started out as a simple jam in the room and took on a life of its own. It's about all the beliefs, myths, and traditions surrounding a red moon, symbolizing rebirth and change, which perfectly encapsulates the spirit of our new album."
Hailing from Southern California, Robert Jon & The Wreck take the Southern rock sound from the east coast and make it their own. Since their inception in 2011, these native Californians have been electrifying audiences all over the world with their soaring guitar leads, rich vocal harmonies, and memorable tunes. They are prolific songwriters with a wealth of new material.
Following a whirlwind of activity in recent months, including the release of their acclaimed singles “Ballad Of A Broken Hearted Man”, "Help Yourself", “Hold On”, and "Stone Cold Killer", Red Moon Rising is the culmination of their experiences, a testament to their resilience and a celebration of their collective growth.
