Intense, soulful and poetic, Redlight King’s music is
ReplyDeleteboth biographical and cathartic. Using the backdrop
of his humble beginnings growing up in the
hardworking Canadian steel town of Hamilton,
Ontario, Redlight King frontman and songwriter, Kaz,
wrote his first song at the age of 7 but didn’t pick up a guitar until he was 21. A keen observer and
prolific storyteller, the songs on Something For The
Pain reflect a culmination of life’s highs and lows.
After hitting rock bottom, Kaz used the experiences
as inspiration and selling everything he had, headed
for Los Angeles to record an honest and introspective album that is sure to resonate with the
listener. Musically, Something For The Pain blends
these pensive musings with a decidedly rock sound
punched with rhythmic undertones. “Old Man”, the
first single from the upcoming CD is not a cover but
rather was written as an ode to his own father while paying homage to musical icon Neil Young’s song of
the same name and, for the first time ever, contains
an approved sample of Young’s original song. Done
with great respect, the song carries a deeply
personal message with a thoroughly modern and
original twist. Pushing boundaries and taking risks sums up the moniker Redlight King and is an apt
description of the band and its music. With victory
ahead and the past a nod in the rearview mirror,
Redlight King is destined to break barriers.
