The Red Locusts

Once in a great while, fans and scholars of the specific music genre known as “power pop” will unearth an album by a new or heretofore unknown artist and instantly and collectively cheer with unabashed glee. It’s been a while, but in May of 2021 the Los Angeles based label Lollipop Records will release such an album by a never-before heard of band called THE RED LOCUSTS. The music is clearly and hugely influenced by classic pop and rock. Fans of The Beatles, The Beach Boys, Jellyfish, Fountains Of Wayne, ELO, Big Star, The Move, The Raspberries, and the like will get what The Red Locusts are pushing. While it’s been heavily rumored that the members of the band have toured and recorded with musical legends such as Ringo Starr, Elton John, David Lee Roth, Rick Springfield, Toto, Electric Light Orchestra, Spinal Tap, The Flash, Badfinger, Coheed and Cambria, and Brian Wilson...as of the date of the writing of this bio, none of this can be confirmed or denied by the band or Lollipop Records. The band members are Paul Ramone (Rick Springfield) – Guitar, Vocals Scotty Skuffleton (Matt Bissonette) – Bass, Vocals Skippy Skuffleton (Greg Bissonette)– Drums, Vocals Duncan Sweets – Keyboards, Vocals Beau Weevil – Guitar, Vocals
