The Red West is a modern rock quartet hailing from southern California. It all began in 2001, when college students Jayson Belt and Andy Smith started writing songs together in their dorm room. Soon the project expanded to include drummer Ryan Gleason and bassist Matt Bathancourt, and the band began gigging in and around Orange County. Their eponymous, self released debut found support among California's thriving surf community. Despite relative success the Red West have not been without their run-ins with the law, coming to a head in January 2010 with the conviction of all 4 members for unlawful hunting in Yellowstone National park. A supreme court judge recently described their crimes as barbaric and distasteful. They are currently serving 6 year sentences in San Quentin Prison. FREE THE RED WEST! Read more on Last.fm.
