juniperRED came together in 2009 after lead singer and guitarist Scott Morris was looking for a band to help promote his debut solo album "Two Weeks From Everywhere".  Scott contacted Matt McGowan and Mike Monts De Oca, a pianist and lead guitarist to join in as he was trying to form the right sound for the group. The band was doing minor gigs or acoustic arangements when it found the services of Sean McGee first on bass, and now on drums. The band also just recently added Kevin Hodges on bass to round out the group.  The band is working on a new album that combines the powerful lyrics and vocals of Scott, with the bluesy guitar riffs of Mike, the solid beat of Sean, the driving bass of Kevin, and the Jazzy-rock fusion of Matt. They continue to play shows around the greater Central Florida area.

If we had to describe our music it would be "modern, southern rock". Our songs are driven by the lyrics that can describe either a lost friend (Just Farewell), hope for the future in a relationship (So We Begin), or life through the eyes of a soldier (Red, White & You). Scott’s strong vocals draw your ear into the worlds which will then swirl around your head. The guitar riffs of Mike draw heavily on classic southern roots and soulful blues. The bass and keys of Kevin and Matt bring a more edgy funk to the music that is apparent, but not distracting. Keeping it all together is the intreging and solid drum beats of Sean.
