RED MCADAM’s playful outsider country music presents an inventive vision of what the genre can be. His rich, risky blend of traditional honky-tonk and Western swing draws on indie rock, R&B, and beyond, reflecting a lifelong love of all music and disdain for genres and rules of any kind. A consummate road dog, he brings his frenetic, dynamic, and occasionally delirious performances to dives, dancehalls, clubs, and theaters across the country. Listeners will recognize the Lone Star eccentricities of Terry Allen and Guy Clark, forlorn folk sensibilities of Elizabeth Cotton and Karen Dalton, and the driving genre-bending of The Band and Bob Dylan.
