Sadly, after five years together, Left Hand Red came to an end in 2010.

About the split:

In 2010, Left Hand Red's drummer, Russell, decided that he was calling it a day. His decision to leave left the band questioning how we would all like to proceed. Left Hand Red was always about the four of us, four friends, making music that we loved. Would it be the same if we had somebody come in and 'replace' Russell? We decided that, for the time being at least, it would not be the same. Therefore, Left Hand Red, for now, has run it's course. But, before you start crying, do read on...

The remaining members, myself, Darren and Barry had a long conversation about what we would like to do next, start a new project together or go our separate ways and begin our own, individual bands. We came to the conclusion that as we get along so well and have that 'connection', it'd make most sense to continue working together. We discussed at length what we would all like from a new band and have now started looking for new members.

When I say we're starting a new band together, this will not be a continuation of Left Hand Red in any way, shape or form. It will be a completely new project. Do not think that the new band will just be Left Hand Red with a different drummer and new name! This couldn't be farther from the truth. We have already started to put ideas down and a new sound and direction has been born. I can't go into details at this time but the departure of Russell has given the rest of us a (much needed) kick up the arse and ignited a new passion and excitement that has been absent in recent months. It's going to take a while to get everything sorted so please be patient, we will keep you informed of any major developments via this MySpace until we have a new one up and running. 
This MySpace and other sites will remain up with free access and downloads of all Left Hand Red's music.

We'd like to wish Russell all the best for the future and thank you all for your support over the past five years.

“Left Hand Red are highly watchable diamonds in a straight-up rock genre littered with bores. Their recent ‘Transition’ E.P. is well worth investigating” - Ben Miller, Critic, The Argus

”’Transition’, a raucous, lively and generally spiffing E.P.”- Latest Seven

“These sweet pop-rock hooks taste like everything from Oasis to QOTSA and smell like the good times you can only get with a good old rock out.” – Brighton Source Magazine

"Left Hand Red’s Voyeur EP sees the quartet tear through just 10 minutes of punchy riff-led rock. Dan Scully’s four-piece don’t waste time - this is raw good times music made for dancing. Brighton Source Magazine says 'These sweet pop-rock hooks taste like everything from Oasis to QOTSA', the latter comparison is the most apt, but the LHR’s pop appeal sets them apart from the usual heavy rocker suspects." - Rockfeedback.com
