RuntheRed is an emerging Irish indie-alternative band which started in 2024 by vocalist Ciara and guitarist/pianist Amy, whose shared passion for songwriting began over casual lunches in a work canteen. What started as conversations between the pair quickly grew into a creative partnership, with the band’s name even being dreamed up over the counter of a local deli AFTER already writing their first song “in Georgia” which includes the line “let’s just Run the Red…”. Their vision soon expanded into a full band, with Ana on violin, Alex on bass, and Matty on drums.
In less than a year as a fully formed band, RuntheRed earned a place on the RTÉ 2FM Rising List for 2026, marking them as one of Ireland’s most exciting new acts. Since then, they have performed at Dublin’s Olympia Theatre and Belfast’s Waterfront Hall while opening for Boyzlife, alongside appearances at major Irish festivals including Forbidden Fruit, Beyond the Pale, and Forest Fest.
Inspired by artists such as The Cranberries, The Frames, and boygenius, RuntheRed blends intimate storytelling with atmospheric indie soundscapes, exploring themes of love, identity, loss, and growing up.
After selling out their first headline show in Whelan’s within a number of minutes, 2027 is set to be an even bigger year for RuntheRed as they continue to establish themselves as one of Ireland’s most promising new bands.
