BIG RED DAY


New Zealand’s BIG RED DAY may be new to the scene, but they’re a band that’s arrived with purpose. Their debut sound is big, bold and unapologetically loud – built on raw crunch, sweeping sustain and a sonic confidence that fills every corner of the room. It’s the kind of full-bodied rock that doesn’t ask for your attention – it demands it.

With roots in Auckland and Christchurch and a style that feels both grounded and forward-pushing, BIG RED DAY are carving their own path through the noise. Call it new faze rock – a muscular, atmospheric sound that doesn’t just echo the past, but bends it toward something new. Their debut album will shortly be streaming on all major platforms. Stay tuned!

Turn it up, hit play and let us know what you think!

That’s a wrap on our fourth video, this one for SuperNova. Filmed in our local community hall with an incredible cast of friends: Jaycee, Krissy, Marsa, Robert, Sarah, Shona, Vicky and our lead Mercia. We asked a lot of you guys and you were fantastic! A huge thanks also to Deanna on camera and lights. So many laughs, even though we were making a drama! Release date: TBC September.

Our second single Run is live! Look out for the video on YouTube soon – a massive effort to film and produce, but well worth it! Here’s the Spotify link.

Exciting news Big Red Day fans! The release date for our next single Run (Lonely) is: Friday July 17, 2026.

It’s a banger! The video will follow a few days later and we’re super proud of it. It’s been a massive effort and every time you watch it you’ll see something new.

In other news, we’re starting the production of the video for our song SuperNova. This one’s more like a short film and featuring some very special friends of the band.

And finally, we’ve locked in some live gigs for later in the year. Stay tuned for details.

12 June 2026:

A huge thank you to everyone who has listened, streamed, watched, shared, liked, commented or simply taken an interest in our first single since its release.

Every stream, every view and every share helps us reach new listeners and we’re grateful to everyone who has taken the time to check us out. Building an audience takes time and we’re excited to be taking those first steps.

The good news is that we’ve been anything but idle. Behind the scenes we’ve been hard at work on our next release, Lonely/Run, which is scheduled for release in early July. We’re also deep into production on the accompanying music video and we can’t wait to share what we’ve been working on.

Thanks for being part of the journey.
