Backstory:

Red Stance was first established in the bustling city of Austin, Texas in 2010, when lead singer and guitarist John “Red” Caster ran into a talented drummer named Chris “Stix” Hardy at a local dive bar. They found a shared love of music and hit it off immediately, leading to a late-night jam session that planted the seed for what would become a gritty, soulful, rock band. They were soon joined by Grace “BassAce” Warner, a bassist with a unique flair, and keyboardist Max “Keys” Rohan, known for his experimental style. Together, they formed Red Stance, a fearless new voice in the American rock scene.

Title:

“Shadows in the Sun”

Full Song Lyrics:

(Verse 1 – A min, D maj, G maj, C maj)
From the dust in the wind, to the echo in the thunder,
In the hazel of your eyes, I see a world of wonder.
But beneath the surface, where the water flows,
There’s a hidden sadness, only our reflection knows.

(Chorus – G maj, D maj, A min, E min)
We’re just shadows in the sun, dancing ‘round in disguise,
Hiding from the daylight, under clear, blue skies.
We’re the echoes of lost souls, who’ve only just begun,
Living in the twilight, as shadows in the sun.

(Verse 2 – A min, D maj, G maj, C maj)
In the hush of the night, under the silver moon,
We weave our stories, beneath the cosmic loom.
But in the break of dawn, when the rooster crows,
We’re back to hiding, where the river flows.

(Chorus – G maj, D maj, A min, E min)
We’re just shadows in the sun, playing a losing game,
Hoping for redemption, shedding our own name.
We’re the echoes of lost souls, whose journey’s just begun,
Destined to roam forever, as shadows in the sun.

“Red Stance has been my favorite band for the past decade because their music speaks to the soul. From their gritty beats to their profound lyrics, every song feels like a journey. I feel seen and understood when I listen to them. Their song “Shadows in the Sun” is my personal anthem; it talks about the duality of human existence, the joy and the pain. I’ve seen them live five times, and each time was a unique, cathartic experience. The raw energy and passion they exhibit on stage is infectious. They are not just musicians; they are poets, story-tellers, and above all, genuine artists.”
