THE RED JUMPSUIT APPARATUS was formed back to 2003 by brothers Ronnie and Randy Winter and it was Virgin Records who snapped them up & released the bands RIAA platinum debut record ‘Don’t You Fake It’ in 2006.
Second album ‘Lonely Road’ followed in 2009. They became fully independent in early 2010. Since then it’s being done “the Red Jumpsuit way”. ‘Am I The Enemy’ was released in 2011, ‘4’ on July 4th, 2014 and ‘The Awakening’ in 2018.
‘The Awakening’ features the smash hit ‘’On Become Willing’’ which has spent the last 7 weeks at # 1 on the Billboard Christian Rock Charts.
Known for their spirituality, the bands lyrics cover an array of emotions. The darkness and the light, the struggles and the wins. The RJA message is ultimately one of hope and a reminder that ‘Even on the worst day that you’re alive you’re still surrounded by so many awesome things that you should be grateful for, if you choose to look at them.’ Ronnie Winter.

Joining them are Brisbane’s THE COMFORT. In their short tenure, they’ve already made their mark on the Australian alternative scene, having done multiple runs around the country alongside bands such as The Hunna, Storm The Sky, Young Lions, Don Broco and Saviour. Their EP ‘Love’ has reached far corners of the globe with the band constantly finding new fans from New York, to London and beyond. With debut album, ‘What It Is To Be’ due out November 9th, THE COMFORT have only just begun.
“This album is called ‘What It Is To Be’ for a specific reason” states The Comfort’s Liam Holmes. When discussing the lyrical content, Holmes says the album is an attempt to showcase the human experience and make sense of who and what we are. The band has poured their heart and soul into this release, each track trying to understand a different piece of the human puzzle.

AMNPLIFY – DB
My nickname is “The Amnplifier”. Why? Because around here my focus is on being a conduit for providing greater outcomes that people come here for. My day to day “work” is living in the moment, and I love helping others concentrate on finding their connection to themselves through their experiences.
Why start a music environment? The truth is I love music, I love writing, and I love life. I work with musicians every day, and I feel certain that I will be until they put me in the ground. I have been managing people in businesses of some sort for over thirty five years so along the way I have developed some “wisdom” from my regular and constant “observations”.
Amnplify your experience. That is what we want you to do here, and if you want to let me know why you do, or don’t, shoot me a message on Facebook.
Hope you enjoy yourself here and find something that hits you somewhere.
