Hailing from Richmond, Virginia, the band Red Reign is no stranger to Rock At Night. We reviewed their single “Yesterday” in 2021 and recently “Don’t Look Back. Red Reign is comprised of Carlton “Bubba” McMichael on vocals and guitar, Sammy Lee on drums, Larry Moore on bass and Stevie Shred on guitar. The band, which formed in 2014, has opened for the likes of Tesla, Lita Ford, Winger, Quiet Riot.
In the interview, Sammy Lee discusses the band’s latest single “Don’t Look Back,” writing music during COVID, mental health, and using the double-kick bass drum for music.
Red Reign’s album Don’t Look Back will be released on October 27, 2023 through Deko Entertainment.

Rock At Night’s theme song is “Get On Down If You Feel Up To It” by Billy “Bass” Alford
I grew up in a household full of rock music, studied journalism in college, and then became a scientist.Although my science career has served me well, music has always played a major role in my life. I grew up reading "Creem" magazine; I play several musical instruments as a "hobby";and it seems a camera has always been in my hand. Now, I am combining what I love the most--music and photography--serving as editor of Rock At Night. I travel between the US and UK seeking my dream! My motto: life is short...no regrets. Chyrisse
