來自四季如夏的熱帶島嶼新加坡， 紅頂雀是以一種生活在北極地帶的鳴禽所命名的樂團。 而最初是以龐克搖滾的模式來翻唱流行歌曲到後來漸漸地轉向詞曲創作。歌詞描述著人與人之間彼此難以表達的情感和期望以極生活在大都市裡所帶來的膈膜與距離感。曲風也大至偏向民謠搖滾和融入一些音素概念如龐克，复古，迷幻，另類。 成立於2006年，樂團這幾年參於了許多大大小小的演出如新加坡華藝節，新加坡華文獨立音樂季，Tapestry街頭演出以及香港Music Matters Live演出等等。 隨著不斷地探索著不同的音樂格式，我們希望能塑造出一個獻給平凡人的不平凡音樂世界。 The story goes way back in 2006, where they did covers of mandarin songs punctuated with punk rock. With the growing local Chinese indie scene, they wanted more…they wanted something to call their own. The urge to create their own identity spurred them to emerge from conformity and plunge into their world of song writing creativity. Over the years, Redpoll has experienced some changes in band line-up, recently with the addition of a vocalist & keyboardist (lucky for them these two are girls). Although their vision still remains the same, their musical direction has changed from guitar driven aggressiveness to a more complex lush instrumentation of music. Even if you have heard of us, do let us make a formal introduction - we are a six piece mandarin folk rock band. With our unassuming ways, we communicate our identity through our songs like Redpolls do. Our lyrics revolve around the reality of urban life, human interaction and communication; simple, honest emotions that we all relate to. We draw our musical influences from a spectrum of genres spanning from the last century. The essence of our style comes from the early century blues & jazz, electric folk psychedelic of the sixties, golden classic pop melody of the 70's to modern alternative music. The eclectic mix of old and new sounds makes our music alternative yet at the same time radio-friendly. As our musical style evolves, we bring you one brand, one unique sound, one uncommon band for all.
