Red Electric (band)

Founded in 2008, the band changed its name from 'Drive' to 'Red Electrick', while the founding band members were still at college. The name of the band was changed to Red Electric in 2022 and announced on social media alongside their new branding. In Summer 2022, Red Electric released a new single titled Fix of You. The song was written in 2021 and speaks about being addicted to a toxic relationship and the positive reinforcement resulting from that relationship despite the risk it poses. Over the years, Red Electric have performed in and toured a number of cities overseas, including Austria, Cyprus, Denmark, Los Angeles, UK, Poland, and Spain. The band has also signed agreements with international companies. In 2009, Red Electric (then Red Electrick) signed an agreement with Poison Tree Records, a Los Angeles-based label for their music to be promoted, released, and distributed digitally worldwide. Another digital agreement was signed in 2011 with another Los Angeles-based distributor, BFM Digital, where their debut album Vine Lady was available on a number of digital stores such as Amazon, Spotify and iTunes. This deal predated the availability of iTunes in Malta. More significantly, the band released the song 'Right Here' under the Rexius Records label in 2018. The band has since signed a global publishing deal with Reservoir Media in 2021. Their latest song 'Emotional Surgery' was released in November 2024. ==Discography==
