History[edit]2003â2004: Early years[edit]Originating in Florida, childhood friends Ronnie Winter and Duke Kitchens started the band while attending an AP music theory class in 2001.[2] The Red Jumpsuit Apparatus was officially formed in 2003 after the addition of other members who were then in other bands. The band name was chosen by the band voting for random words they threw on a wall.[3] The Red Jumpsuit Apparatus worked with Vision Sound studios in Orange Park, Florida, which released a '6 song EP CD that was spread throughout different countries to promote the band in 2005'.[2] The band began to become more popular as they used certain social media, namely Myspace, to advertise their music.[2] While popular in their local scene, the band found it difficult to secure label support. This is why the band took 18 months to write songs before going into the live scene.[2] They built a fan base with continued live shows, which attracted the attention of Jason Flom of Virgin Records in 2005, after which they began work on their first album.[2] 2005â2007: Don't You Fake It[edit]In 2006, they released their first LP, Don't You Fake It, with the singles 'Face Down,' 'False Pretense', 'Your Guardian Angel', and 'Damn Regret'. The album was certified gold on November 27, 2006 by the RIAA for sales shipments exceeding 500,000 copies.[4] In February 2007, The Red Jumpsuit Apparatus headlined the USTake Action Tour organized for the prevention of youth suicide, along with bands such as My Chemical Romance and Rise Against.[5][6] Their song 'In Fate's Hands' is featured in the video game Madden NFL 07; their song 'Face Down' is featured in the video games Saints Row 2 and MX vs. ATV: Untamed; and their song 'False Pretense' is featured in the movie Never Back Down. From 2006 to 2008, the band performed several headliner and supporting shows with bands like Thirty Seconds to Mars,[6]Madina Lake, The Audition, Saosin,[7]Scary Kids Scaring Kids, Taking Back Sunday, Lorene Drive, The Used, Monty Are I,[8]Amber Pacific,[9]Boys Like Girls, Halifax, Emery, A Static Lullaby,[10] and So They Say.[6] The Red Jumpsuit Apparatus Don't You Fake It Deluxe Edition (CD/DVD) was released on February 23, 2007. The CD features the album and two exclusive songs, an acoustic version of 'Face Down', and a never released out of Australia bonus track, 'Disconnected'. On May 3, 2007, The Red Jumpsuit Apparatus performed at Fort Rucker, Alabama to help benefit the rebuilding of Enterprise High School after it was destroyed by a tornado on March 1, 2007.[11] In May 2007, the single 'Face Down' was featured in the movie Georgia Rule. The song was also used in Madden NFL 07 as well as the 2007 EVER OSL Starleague (Ongamenet). Additional songs used during that OSL season were 'Waiting' and 'Atrophy'. In a 2007 interview with the Florida Entertainment Scene, The Red Jumpsuit Apparatus teamed up with Virgin Records to raise funds for the National Coalition Against Domestic Violence. They also headlined the Take Action! Tour, which sponsors awareness against teen suicide, animal cruelty, and domestic violence. 2008â2009: Lonely Road[edit]In June 2007, according to Billboard.com, The Red Jumpsuit Apparatus began to work on their second album, Lonely Road, that had a tentative release date of summer 2008.[12] The band was then pulled out of their confirmed appearances at the Australian Soundwave festival tour 2008, after their label president promised to pay money that was owed and have the band in the studio, but instead didn't pull through.[citation needed] In April 2008, the band began an acoustic tour on the east coast in various locations with the group Amaru, who is from the same home town. Ronnie said that the tour felt like they were 'Getting back where we all started.' After pulling out of the 2008 Soundwave festival, the band took part in the line-up for 2009. On September 30, 2008, the band announced in a Myspace blog post that on October 3 they would be premiering a demo version of a song from the upcoming album. The song was available a day earlier for members of The Red Jumpsuit Apparatus 'Alliance' fan group. However, the studio of the song 'Pen and Paper' was released to members of the fan group on October 9, and was released on the band's Myspace the following day. Another song, 'You Better Pray', the first single from Lonely Road, was premiered worldwide on PlanetRadio1073.com for free listening beginning on October 21[citation needed] and began streaming the next day on the band's Myspace page. Their second studio album, titled Lonely Road,[13] was released on February 3, debuting in the fourteenth spot on the Billboard 200, and was produced by Howard Benson (My Chemical Romance, Daughtry, Less Than Jake, Hoobastank, P.O.D., The All-American Rejects, Seether, and Cold). Beginning in October 2008, Matt Carter had replaced former guitar player Elias Reidy. Carter had worked as a tech for the band in the winter and spring of 2008, and had jammed with the band a few years previously. Now, Carter was asked to take Reidy's spot, and he agreed to play with The Red Jumpsuit Apparatus. In an interview with a Jacksonville newspaper, Ronnie was asked whether Carter was officially in the band, to which he responded, 'I don't know. I guess he's in the band. We're taking it slow.' Carter played with the band from then on.[14] In support of this album, the band went on many tours in the winter of 2008 and the spring of 2009 with bands such as Shinedown, Framing Hanley, and Tickle Me Pink. On March 20, 2009, Red Jumpsuit Apparatus released an EP titled Shock Session, featuring acoustic versions of 'Pen & Paper', 'You Better Pray', and 'Face Down'. At the end of May 2009, they announced along with Hollywood Undead, Mest, and The Sleeping that they would be doing a summer tour for the months of June and July, playing mostly club and small venue shows. They rejoined Monty Are I for an August 2009 tour throughout Canada and California. 2010â2012: The Hell or High Water EP and Am I the Enemy[edit]On January 29, 2010, The Red Jumpsuit Apparatus announced via their Twitter page that they would have a new EP out in late July/August. In February 2010, the band parted ways with their label Virgin Records, citing the poor promotion of Lonely Road. They decided to release music independently. According to lead singer Ronnie Winter, 'At this point we want to stay completely 100% independent for as long as possible.'[15] The first such song was 'Valentine,' which was released for free on Valentine's Day, February 14, 2010. On June 22, 2010, The Red Jumpsuit Apparatus announced via Myspace blog that their upcoming EP release would be titled The Hell or High Water, and that the first song from it, 'Choke', would be released on June 28, 2010 as a free download. The EP was recorded in the band's studio in Middleburg, Florida, and was mixed and mastered by Paul Lapinski.[16] This was their first release following their departure from Virgin Records, and was released on August 24, 2010. The full-length album following the EP was scheduled to be out in early 2011.[17][18] The music video for the first single from the EP, 'Choke', premiered at purevolume.com on August 25, 2010 in support of the EP's release. It was the first of a three-part series, followed by 'Don't Hate' and 'Hell or High Water'. It shows characters killing record executive-type personnel, running from the police, and then dying in the final video. Its moral was 'violence never solves anything'. In November 2010, The Red Jumpsuit Apparatus entered the studio to record their third full-length album, Am I the Enemy, finishing in December 2010 with producer John Feldmann.[19] The album's first single, 'Reap', was released via YouTube on March 24, although the song itself was not released to iTunes until April 26.[20] The Red Jumpsuit Apparatus later released two other songs from their new album on their YouTube channel, 'Salvation' and 'Fall from Grace'. A June 7 announcement on the band's Facebook page said the new album, Am I the Enemy, would be released on August 30, 2011. It was to contain twelve songs.[21] On July 11, 2011, lead singer Ronnie Winter announced that guitarists Duke Kitchens and Matt Carter had left the band 'to focus on their personal lives', and longtime Red Jumpsuit Apparatus fan Josh Burke joined as lead guitarist.[22] This was followed by a YouTube video on July 17 welcoming Burke as the official lead guitarist of the band, replacing Carter.[23] Ronnie's brother, Randy Winter, was later added as the second guitarist, filling in for Duke Kitchens. In mid-October, drummer Jon Wilkes decided to depart from the band in order to 'pursue new things and make a living' as a producer. According to Wilkes, he left the band on good terms and wished them the best in their future endeavors. He was temporarily replaced by Kristopher Comeaux while the band was touring, but Comeaux departed shortly after. 2013âpresent: Et Tu, Brute? EP, 4 and The Awakening[edit]A 2013 blog post on the band's purevolume page announced that 2013 marked the ten year anniversary of the band. On March 15, 2013, the band released an EP titled Et Tu, Brute?. The EP was produced by David Bendeth (producer of Don't You Fake It). Prior to its release, the band released two of the songs on their page.[24] On October 11, 2013, the band revealed their fourth studio album, titled 4, was 'coming soon' via their Facebook page. They also revealed that David Bendeth would be producing the LP. Three days later, again through Facebook, the band announced Matt Carter was returning to the band and would be playing lead guitar for 4.[25]On January 1, 2014, the band announced that 4, as well as the rest of their discography, would be released July 4, 2014.

In a November 27 post on their official Instagram page, RJA announced their anniversary tour dates. They were one of the first official bands announced for 2017's Rock on the Range in Columbus, Ohio. In an April 2017 interview, Winter said that after their anniversary tour, the band would head to the studio in southern California to record The Awakening. It would be co-produced by him and his wife, and was to be released in the same year.[26] However, according to coverage by Alternative Press of a post and comments on the band's Facebook page in July 2017, the new record would be released in 2018, along with a new single and tour in the fall of 2017.[27] It was released on March 30, 2018.[28] In September 2018 an Australian tour was announced to be taking place in December of the same year featuring support from Australian band The Comfort.

The Red Jumpsuit Apparatus enjoyed a good deal of crossover success in 2007, when 'Face Down' became a hit single with pop fans and modern rock audiences alike. Rarely had an emo band cracked the Top 40, much less with a song that featured screaming vocals, and the group's debut album sold over one million copies as a result. Released two years later, Lonely Road attempts to maintain that audience with a wildly eclectic track list, all the while remaining rooted in the familiar emo world of nasal vocals, anthemic choruses, and distorted guitars. Veteran producer Howard Benson gives the album a slick studio polish, stacking guitar riffs like bricks in an attempt to build something noteworthy, but Lonely Road ultimately collapses under the weight of its own spectacle. The entire project is misguided, but vocalist Ronnie Winter is perhaps the worst offender. Having suffered from bronchitis during the band's previous tour (a disease that excused his inability to hit any of the high notes in concert), he embraces his healed throat by performing acrobatic flips around every melody, oversinging the songs within an inch of their lives. Tracks like 'Represent' are excessive, filled with symphonic string schmaltz and fist-pumping guitars, but far worse is the doo wop/emo ballad 'Believe,' where Winter croons with all the earnestness of an American Idol contestant aping Steve Perry. Later, the band employs an honest-to-God gospel choir during the title track, a move that ushers some Southern rock clichés and Kid Rock-styled soul into the mix. The most ridiculous highlight, though, is 'Godspeed,' a flawed war ballad filled with rat-a-tat military percussion, a drill sergeant's voice-over, and an imagined story line that involves bayonets and tear-sealed letters. Like the ten previous tracks, 'Godspeed' is too far-reaching for a band like the Red Jumpsuit Apparatus, whose ability to perform these songs live is questionable at best. Don't You Fake It may have suffered from a lack of variety, but Lonely Road is plagued by different diseases: misguided ambition, outlandish excess, and a bad case of the ol' sophomore slump.
The discography of American rock band the Red Jumpsuit Apparatus consists of five studio albums, five extended plays, eighteen singles, and twelve music videos.
