INTRODUCING RDGLDGRN/DEBUT SINGLE ‘MILLION FANS’/LIVE DATES

Dave Grohl is drumming for them, Pharrell Williams is writing with them, Beastie Boys right hand man Mario C is remixing for them and everyone from The Fader to NME and Radio 1’s Huw Stephens and Zane Low are talking about them. Introducing RDGLDGRN (pronounced Red Gold Green) the Washington DC based trio who gained widespread recognition when they self-released a song called ‘I Love Lamp’ on YouTube late last year. Within just a few weeks the video had 100,000 views and they were on their way to begin recording their debut album at the historic Sound City Studios in California. It was there, in the same studio where Nevermind was created, that the band caught the attention of Foos frontman and rock legend Dave Grohl, who was so impressed he offered to play drums on the album. And it’s not just rock royalty that are into RDGLDGRN, the hip-hop community is also taken by the band’s unique sound, with genre-bending artist and producer Pharrell Williams (N.E.R.D., The Neptunes), co-writing and co-producing standout track ‘Doing the Most’ and long time Beastie Boys producer Mario Caldato remixing the band’s debut single ‘Million Fans’.

CHORDS, RIFFS, TABS AND TURN-AROUNDS

Gospel, Jazz, Folk, Country, Rock, Soul, B-Bop, Funk, Rhythm & Blues, Punk and Pop, it all came "Out of the Blues" . On the Focus Music page we aim to take a look at the journey popular music has made through the decades with links to influential artists of each era. Bessie Smith, Billie Holiday and original Blues men including Robert Johnson, Edward Son House, Skip James and Mississippi John Hurt made their way north from the American deep South and brought the "Blues" to a wider American audience. This in turn lead to the birth of "Rock and Roll" in the 50s with artists such as Bill Haley, Elvis Presley, Jerry Lee Lewis, Chuck Berry and Little Richard. "The Beatles" were inspired by the great guitar riffs of Buddy Holly, Chuck Berry and Little Richard's soulful sound and "Rhythm and Blues" burst onto the UK music scene in the 60s spawning the "Mersey Beat Sound" and "Beatlemania" and the rest they say is Hi
