About five seconds ago, Sydney’s Red Riders announced that they are breaking up.
I’m absolutely shattered about this. Red Riders were a class act, and they will be sorely missed. Here’s the announcement. The band are supporting Children Collide on their upcoming tour, and it sounds like these will be their last shows, perhaps coupled with a few special headline gigs in Sydney and Melbourne. If you haven’t already seen them live I can’t urge you strongly enough to go and check them out. RIPRR.

I agree – sad to hear this news. I had their first album on high rotation when it was released but still haven’t seen them live. Will have to catch them before they hang up their cords.
