I just got my tickets for Keane/the Zutons in Milwaukee, and it says there is any opening band called, "The Redwalls".

Allmusic.com has them listed as a Chicago band.

Anyone know anything about them?

I read the blurb at Allmusic, it says they rock in the vein of the Rolling Stones, CCR, The Beatles, etc. Hmmm... I have never heard of them personally.

Any Ideas?

Haha. How have you missed it? Epa knows the Red Walls and several of the Chicagoans are big fans. The influences you listed are dead-on, and you could certainly call them derivative, but they derive well. I hear good things about the live show.

Derivative in all the best possible ways.
Songs I've heard are excellent.

Heard one of their songs and fell instantly in love. And this was just yesterday.

Now I very badly want to get their cd and see them play.

I'm buying this album this weekend. Was talking to Ampersand last night about them and he said he had the album and that was that. I HAVE to get it!


I was checking their tour listings. Sucks they're not playing chicago any time soon outside the opening for Keane tomorrow night.

Some of us went to their last small club show at Schuba's, right before NYE. You missed out, kid.
