Band Canada Formed 2009
Redlight King formed in 2009 in Canada. Redlight King has 19 chart appearances on 15 radio countdowns from 14 stations on RockLists, spanning 2011–2013. The most successful song on radio countdowns is “Old Man”, which appears on 11 lists with a best position of #12.

Redlight King came together in Hamilton, Ontario, in 2009, a Canadian-American rock band with a sound built for stadium speakers and slow-motion replays. Something for the Pain, their 2011 debut album, carried "Old Man", and Irons in the Fire followed in 2013 with the fists-in-the-air "Born to Rise".
They have earned their stripes the hard way, with more than 1,000 live shows, slots at big festivals on both sides of the Atlantic, over 100 live radio sessions, and turns on Late Night with Conan O'Brien and The Tonight Show with Jay Leno. Hollywood and the sports world keep calling too: their music has turned up in Iron Man 3, The Avengers, Draft Day and The Italian Job, on Person of Interest, and in licensing deals with the NFL, NHL, NBA, MLB, CFL, NASCAR and ESPN.
