Red Scare welcomes new band to the family: Elway!
With all these Red Scare bands attaining full blown stardom and achieving the height of success, it occurred to us that we need some fresh young talent to exploit. It’s like in that movie Mean Girls where they see the new dumpy girl and the cool kids are all, “Omigod, total PROJECT!” This is very much like that, except that instead of nubile nymphs, it’s a buncha grown men with drinking problems.
So what the fuck are we talkin’ about? Well, there’s this band from Fort Collins, Colorado called Elway and Red Scare is gonna release their debut record in 2011. Brendan is wild about ’em, so we figure why not? In fact, they’re coming to Chicago in January to record with Matt Allison at Atlas Studios. All the guys were previously in a band you may have heard of called 10-4 Eleanor, but they took that incarnation of the band out back and gave it the Old Yeller treatment. They wanted a fresh start, and now they’re called Elway (an equine reference?).
They’re a pretty hard-touring, hard-rockin’ outfit and they already have some upcoming shows booked. So stay tuned for more on Elway, and if you wanna peep these beauties or check out some of their old songs, you can visit ’em here:
