Robert Bray from Gideon's Army tells us the story behind the song "Red Lips", which comes from their recently released album "King of the League". Here is the story:
I fell for a girl when I was out in Los Angeles shooting music videos for my first album "Burn for the Living." The girl in the song 'Red Lips' is actually a model and an actress that was featured in two of those music videos. We had a brief fling during my few week stay on the west coast but we kept in touch when I went back to my hometown of New York City where my band was and where I had commitments scheduled. I missed her, I longed for her, fantasized about her, didn't know if I would ever see her again. I saved up a bit of money, by design, and I offered to fly her out to New York to spend a week with me when it fit our schedules. She accepted. I was ecstatic.
The next few weeks were spent in desirous anticipation and considered preparation. The song 'Red Lips' came out of that emotional state and it's a passionate song filled with fire and longing. I sent her an acoustic version and she loved it. I crafted the song lyrics like a love letter, a gift, and gave it to her when she arrived at my apartment.
Hearing is believing. Now that you know the story behind the song, listen for yourself and learn more about the album right here!
