Red Rum Club are a sextet from Liverpool.

Since the return of live, they have supported Circa Waves on a UK tour, plus are currently embarking on a UK headline tour with many sold out shows.
Glastonbury 2019 for BBC introducing was a pivotal moment in the band's journey, as they packed out the BBC Introducing stage and had Huw Stephens (BBC R1) championing the band after an exhilarating live performance. Red Rum Club headlined the This Feeling stage at many Summer festivals in 2019 including Truckfest, Tramlines, YNOT, and Isle of Wight. Support slots have included The 1975, Jungle, Blossoms and Miles Kane.
