Red

Red (stylized as RED or R3D) is an American Christian rock band from Nashville, Tennessee, formed in 2002 by brothers Anthony (guitars) and Randy Armstrong (bass, piano) and Michael Barnes (lead vocals). The band's first lineup also consisted of Andrew Hendrix (drums) and Jasen Rauch (guitars). After they recorded several demos displaying a style of alternative, hard, and Christian rock music, Red landed a development deal with their longtime producer Rob Graves which led to a record deal with Christian label Essential Records in 2004. Their debut albums End of Silence (2006) and Innocence & Instinct (2009) were nominated for a Grammy Award for Best Rock Gospel Album, and spawned the popular singles "Breathe Into Me" and "Death of Me". Red's mainstream popularity grew and their third album, Until We Have Faces (2011), reached No. 2 on the Billboard 200, which was followed by Release the Panic (2013), which peaked at No. 7, of Beauty and Rage (2015), Gone (2017), Declaration (2020), and Rated R (2023).
