Orchestral art rock group The Red Paintings have announced extensive tour dates for the UK, Europe & the US ahead of the release of their full-length album ‘The Revolution Is Never Coming’ in mid-2013.
Following the success of a sold-out UK club tour with The Pineapple Thief, the band have just announced they will bring their intimate acoustic show to the US as support for …And You Will Know Us By The Trail Of Dead on their North American tour in July. The Red Paintings will then fly straight to the UK to headline the Bizarre Stage at Rebellion Festival, the world’s biggest independent punk and alternative event.
Unfortunately for Gold Coast fans, this means the band will be cancelling their Coolangatta show on the 6th of July. Tickets will be reimbursed in full and fans are asked to contact their place of purchase for a full refund.
“The Red Paintings fans’ mean the world to me, this was a hard decision to make but there is no way I could leave Australia without doing something on the Gold Coast,” says Trash McSweeney, the front man and creator behind The Red Paintings.
In true Red Paintings style the band will be putting on an acoustic live performance, interview and a meet and greet afterwards at Rabbit Radio on the 2nd of July at 1pm EST. Fans are encouraged to come down to the station to bid farewell to the band before they leave Australian shores for who knows how long!
The band has also been invited to join punk-lords Mindless Self Indulgence on their massive UK & Europe tour in November and December. The invitation follows a sold-out US theatre tour earlier in the year.
Australian fans still have the chance to see The Red Paintings in Adelaide and Perth.
With their diverse history and cult following, The Red Paintings have stepped into 2013 with a cutting edge debut-album, a highly praised innovative live performance, and die-hard fans (who Trash says are “the best on the planet”). It truly looks as though the future is now for the band.
