Biography:
House of Heroes - Tim Skipper (vocals, guitar), A.J. Babcock (bass, vocals), Colin Rigsby (drums, vocals), and Jared Rigsby (guitar, vocals) - creates a unique breed of music verging on the safe line of pop-punk rock while blending the danger of indie-style rock.
House of Heroes doesn't just sing songs, they tell stories. Songs like "In the Valley of the Dying Sun" (telling a version of the story of Jacob in the Bible) and "Code Name: Raven" (the story of a spy in the time of World War II) draw listeners in by setting stories of love

Baby's a Red
By: House of Heroes
Standard tuning
Capo 5 (or w/o capo played in D, I just like the chords better in A)
Love this song, but I couldnt find it charted out anywhere, so heres my best shot at it. Enjoy!
I wrote out the chords that might be different from usual...the rest are
just normal. This is how I play it, and it works pretty well with the track.
