The Red Shift is proud to be Hastings Only 5 Piece Ska/Funk/Punk band. The Red Shift are influenced by band like The Specials, Less Than Jake and Incubus and everything in between. Its members include Matt Pearce (Lead Vocals/ Guitar), Andrew Lee (Backing Vocals/ Lead Guitar/ Sax), James McLean (Backing Vocals/Bass), Ben Thomson (General Guitar work) and Carl Welch (Drums). The Bands been together for about since june 04 but has only become serious since September 2004. They played their first gig at the Crypt in October 2004 where there was a very friendly reception. From then on things have just been going up. After a lot of demand they recorded a 10 track CD and theyve been selling thick and fast since we started putting them on sale. Theyre now looking to spread they're wings from the Hastings area. They're are playing gigs all about the place and are booking more everyday! In mid July 05 The Red Shift Played their London Debut at the prestigious Mean Fiddler venue "The Garage". They're hoping to get more gigs at venues like this.

"You have to be wary- and a little bit scared- to come across a band that call their album 'Iced Gems & Armfarts'. The music is as fun as the title itself! Whether or not these boys are taking themselves seriously or not is completely irrelevant when an album so unique, exciting and fun is produced. A fantastic mix of ska and excellent vocals plus some catchy as hell lyrics make this rather good and essential listening. Highlights include 'Summer Loving' and Kaiser Chiefs type track 'Crap Job', plus the slick cover of 'Wild Thang'. You could do a lot worse than check this band out!" - 8/10 Killer Dienamite Zine
