Red Riders Announce Split

Maaaan. After eight years, two albums and a decent clock up of touring mileage, Red Riders have decided to call it a day.

A statement on the band’s blog reads:

“Rather than grind something that’s special to us into the ground, we’d like to call it quits while we can we can still stand proudly behind everything that we’ve made together.

Basically, to anyone who’s ever given a damn, thank you! We’re gonna keep making music in other guises so keep a ear out, and if you see us at the pub, or lurking up the back of a show someplace, come say hi. We can grab a beer.

Big love,
RR’

Farewell shows in Sydney and Melbourne will be announced soon, but for now you can catch the guys on the road with Children Collide on their current tour.

And for the better of it…
