Editorial Reviews For the members of BLOOD RED VELVET, their music is an evolving compulsion and yet they are also purposeful composers: beautiful vocals that evoke THE CURE, full of lush chords like DENNIS DREW'S that spring from generations of classically trained pianists into the white-hot style of New Orleans. A wild yet structured freedom that has made this music bloom with such passion and explore the visceral undercarriage of people's concerns, fears, and loves as well as the complexities of being human, especially the suffering and joy. The melodies and rich chords on their first two albums, BORN AMONG THE RUINS and ROMEO'S BONES, will enchant anyone with a penchant for the romantic, the spiritual, the beautiful or the unusual -- in fact, they enchant practically everyone. The proof is in the wide variety of listeners who flock to hear BLOOD RED VELVET, everyone from young music devotees to hip urbanites to youthful adventurers to business professionals who know a great thing when they hear it.

About the Artist
BLOOD RED VELVET: the name means everything. Visceral, the vibrant color of life itself, and the rich sensuality of velvet - this band is named truly and well. Their name also describes the dominant chords that result in their music. With the popular feel of REM and 10,000 MANIACS taken to a more sophisticated and richer level, BLOOD RED VELVET is poised to bring the charm and vast appeal of their homebase, NEW ORLEANS, to the rest of the world.
Album Description
If REM married The Cure and had a happy child, he'd be Blood Red Velvet's ROMEO'S BONES. From this album, "Lashes" is a Radiohead/Pink Floyd influenced, dark harmony riff indulged track.A new REM-like sound with a familiar flavor, but more than enough new taste to excite listeners.
