The Red – Pretend (Spotify)
“The song that leaves a pleasant imprint on our minds and proudly takes priority of place among other creations. The Folk music genre has a unique feature; it can be entertaining and wherever you are, need to listen until the end. Unique, original sound and sensible melody.”
“Песня оставляет приятный след в нашем сознании и с гордостью занимает почётное место среди прочих творений. Музыка жанра folk обладает уникальным свойством - её можно и нужно слушать везде, где бы не были. Неповторимая, оригинальная атмосфера и осмысленная мелодия.”

THE RED is a French-born songwriter, singer and musician, whose first solo album (2020) is dedicated to American and Irish poets.
Influenced by country music as well as Irish and American folk singers, THE RED treats his music with no fixed rules which would enclose it in very definite style.
His songs are composed and arranged by himself, with no other purpose than to offer the best of themselves to the fans, and the non-fans.
While he is definitely a folk songwriter in a long tradition that gives lyrics a prominent place, his music has been already defined as indie country-folk.
