TWO members of Geelong-based heavy metal band The Red Shore have died in a crash on a NSW highway, a Geelong studio says.
An employee for Pan Studios in Geelong said the company had received news that the band's 27-year-old lead singer and a 22-year-old merchandiser were killed in the crash.
The singer died at the crash site, north of Coffs Harbour, while the 22-year-old died in hospital after spending an hour trapped in the wreck of their minivan.
Police said the van veered off the Pacific Highway before going down an embankment and slamming into a tree about 7am (AEDT).
Six others, all believed to be men aged in their 20s, were also injured in the single vehicle crash. They were all taken to Coffs Harbour Hospital.
The Red Shore were touring with US death metal outfit All Shall Perish on the “Christmas Carnage” tour when the crash occurred.
Both bands played at Brisbane's Club Phoenix last night and were scheduled to play at Hermann's Bar at Sydney University tonight.
NSW police said the dead men's relatives had asked that their names not be released.
Jarrod, a barman at The National Hotel in Geelong, where the band has played, described the lead singer as quiet and “chilled out”.
“He was a nice, quiet guy, contrary to the band's music,” Jarrod said.
Sally Laver, the owner of Pan Studios, said The Red Shore's musical career had just started to take off.
The band drew crowds of up to 200 people in their home town of Geelong, she said.
“They're one of our bigger bands,” she said.
Ms Laver said the singer was “wonderful.”
“He was a very sensitive young man.
“He was very passionate about everything he did.”
I am sorry for your loss, young men on a tragic life journey. Please do not stop your music because of your loss. Please rock on in a life of making your spirit friends proud. They will always be members of The Red Shore."
