Red Guitars, an English indie rock band from Hull, emerged in 1982 with a distinctive fusion of rock and African rhythms. Their self-released debut single, "Good Technology," sold 60,000 copies, followed by chart-topping indie hits "Marimba Jive" and "Steeltown." The band's unique sound and socially conscious lyrics garnered acclaim, leading to performances on Channel 4's "The Tube" and BBC's "Whistle Test," as well as memorable sessions for John Peel. After disbanding in 1986, Red Guitars reunited in 2022, embarking on UK tours and releasing new material, including a 40th-anniversary remix of "Good Technology" in 2023.
