Details:
In 1996 five high school students from Recife, Brazil challenge the music trend and started a rock band The River Raid. The group consists of Toni (vocals/ guitar), Praga (vocals/ guitar), Giba (guitars/ moog), Dudu (bass) and Leo (drums/ sampler). Their music is influenced by The Stooges, Violent Femmes, Radiohead and other Brazilian artists from the sixties and seventies. They rapidly gained media attention after winning first place at a national band challenge hosted by MTV with the song 2030. After a couple of years dedicated to other music endeavors, the members of The River Raid got together once again to write and release their official first self titled debut album, The River Raid. River Raid immediately got noticed by specialized media, earning them great reviews among Brazil’s music critics, bloggers and magazines such as Rolling Stone, who placed them in the “Editors Hot List of the Month” with the song Nao Caio Mais No Q Vc Diz (Don’t fall for what you say anymore). So after a promotional tour in their native country, The River Raid was invited to play at some of the most important festivals of North America: the Atlantis Music Conference (Atlanta, Georgia), Canadian Music Week (Toronto, Canada), Florida Music Festival and Conference (Orlando, USA), Red Gorilla Music Fest (Austin,TX, USA) and North By North East (Toronto, Canada), opportunities that are perfect breeding grounds for new artists. In 2008, their talent continues to be recognized from some of the most prestigious contests and awards such as ISC (International Songwriting Competition) and New Video Music Awards. The band is currently working to prepare a new album to be released this year.
