The Scoop

Sly Grog Presents: The Red Scare (Knoxville Screamo) Serrate (Asheville Screamo) Scaretactic (Asheville D-Beat Punk) Doors 8 PM // Show 9 PM $12 About The Red Scare: "The Red Scare was formed by college friends Matt Hall (drums), Kip Uhlhorn (guitar/vocals), Abby Wintker (bass), and Adam Ewing (guitar) in August of 1997 in Knoxville, TN. ‍They began playing locally; building a name for themselves, with short, hyper-energetic sets similar to those of Sleepytime Trio from Virginia and Gravity Records heroes, Heroin, from San Diego, CA. By 1998, Jon Asher had replaced Adam Ewing on guitar and the band embarked on their first tour with Milemarker, Orchid, and Hail Mary. ‍Capillary Lockdown, an album of apocalyptic vision and propulsive, almost overwhelming rhythms, was released in November of 1999 by Hand Held Heart (vinyl) and Troubleman Unlimited (CD). In June of 2000, they toured again—this time with Orchid and Lightning Bolt. They also recorded their 2nd album, Strangers Die Everyday, at Inner Ear Studios with Don Zientara.
