Beyond the Blues Thank You

Posted on by Loudhailer Music

Thank you to everyone who has bought and shared our new single ‘Beyond the Blues’ this week, for supporting new original music and for great comments, all very much appreciated. Some of you may remember the tune from our last tour. For the single, we recorded it with Hal’s original lyrics. This is his backstory: “It’s both a celebration and a lament, about age, death and the passing of cultural icons. Seeing how the passage of time makes the past recede, I was feeling conscious of the way that the cultural power of rock music was slipping into history, hence all the name drops referring to the heyday of rock, psychedelia and hippydom – when these things all felt so vital and relevant. (See if you can spot ’em all!).”

If you enjoy our music, please help us get the word out, follow us, and and pass it on 🙏

Video filmed by Simon Baxter of Factor Fifty Films. If you’d like to buy the single we’d be very grateful. It’s on all the usual digital platforms, and Bandcamp is the one we recommend.

We filmed the video at O’Rileys, Hull. It’s an independent venue where we play, rehearse and have recorded the drum tracks for the new album. We’ve been back there this week recording the last few album backing tracks.

Good Technology Cowboy Video

Posted on by Loudhailer Music

Thanks to Bob Osborne’s Different Noises for his review and play of our Red Guitars x Jake Angel Good Technology Cowboy Mix and video.

“Founding Red Guitars member Lou Duffy-Howard collaborated with Nashville-based producer Jake Angel on a radical rework of Good Technology, dubbed the Cowboy Mix. The remix fuses rattlesnake slide guitar, fretless bass, and country hip-hop beats with distorted call-and-response vocals.  Lou restructured the vocal phrasing into a question–answer format, added new bass lines, and panned the responses for spatial effect. The accompanying video features surreal western imagery, including a bull moving in sync with the guitar solo. This mix stands apart from the official extended remix, offering a Dust Bowl-inflected reinterpretation of Red Guitars’ iconic critique of consumer tech.” Bob Osborne’s Rituals of Infinity, October 2025.

Thanks to everyone who has watched, listened to, bought or shared our new single Blazing Zombies so far. It’s been great fun to record it and make the video.

But there is a serious side to the song too. This is Hal’s backstory:

“Blazing Zombies is part raucously cathartic rant, stirred by so much anger, disaffection, and hatred in the air, and part personal reflection on our complicity in the systems that drive that division and disconnectedness – and the dreadful effects that it can have. A response to the everyday dissonance of extreme mundanity (‘please prepare to push your trolley off the end of the conveyor’ playing on repeat in a shopping mall) and apocalypse (‘please prepare for climate catastrophe’ playing on repeat on the news). At the end of the song the zombies express retrospective sorrow and regret at the havoc caused – a smidge of ironic humour and optimism survives!”

Yep! Please help us get the word out and pass it on:

The official Blazing Zombies video was filmed in the Meka Space gallery and Black Lion in Bridlington and O’Riley’s Music Venue in Hull. 

We had loads of fun making the video. We played our first gig as a four piece at O’Riley’s and invited the audience to dress as zombies for the live shots. Our fans certainly came up with the goods. You were terrifying!
