Official press release:
Southern Californian rock trio Radio Moscow are currently putting finishing touches on their much-anticipated fifth studio album, New Beginnings, which is set for release via Century Media Records on September 29, 2017.
Right on time with the release of their new opus, the band has confirmed the The Drifting Tour, which will drown Europe from September 26 to October 31 in waves of fuzzy, hard rocking riffs and sweaty, cranked up blues!
Formed in 2003, the power trio led by Stratocaster genius Parker Griggs carved their own sonic niche fusing crunching, heavy Sabbath-style chords with fiery ‘Hendrixian’ solos and a raw intensity that is addictive and captivating. From the self-titled debut back in 2007, which was produced by Black Keys’ Dan Auerbach, over to last year’s Live! In California, Radio Moscow proved to be not just a cheap time machine but a direct descendant from the golden age of rock ‘n’ roll!
Known as a tremendous live act, Parker Griggs (vocals, guitar), Anthony Meier (bass) and Paul Marrone (drums) have hit the road hard in the U.S. and in Europe in past years, touring with the likes of Graveyard, Witchcraft, Joe Bonamassa and Pentagram as well as playing festivals such as Desert Daze (US), the Void Fest (Ger), Electric Funeral (US), Burg Herzberg Fest (Ger), and the Orbital Festival in Santiago, Chile, to name but a few.
Now, Radio Moscow are gearing up for an exciting new chapter in their career with the release of New Beginnings and have kicked off another massive touring cycle with a US mini-tour, selected European festivals in August, and a full European tour in September/October. Even more chances to see the band live are currently in the works!
