Mike Hale had spent a lot of time in the No Idea Recording artist, Gunmoll. When Gunmoll disbanded, Mike moved to California where he started In the Red with drummer, Matt Glasgow (who some say could be the World's Tallest Drummer). They released Volume 1 with Kiss of Death and put out a split 7" with Git Some on 1234Go before signing with Suburban Home Records. In the Red's latest, Volume 2, comes out on March 31st, 2009.
