About

The only child of an illicit union between Neil Young and Ozzy Osbourne, Red Rose Empire was born under railway arches in Shepherds Bush, and fed on a diet of tea, cigarettes, beer and cake until it was strong enough to make its own way in the world. 

No audience can hear the band without getting a vivid and harrowing picture of its haunted past of being forced into rock venues and cinemas, theatres and record shops as a youth and made to experience a terrifyingly diverse range of cultural influences. Needless to say, this has had a marked effect on the poor, troubled creature; not the least of its problems is a tendency to act out energetically in public, performing various dangerously tight and skilful musical feats to the astonishment of onlookers.
