Band to Take Show Overseas for String of European Dates

Ok. So many have been posting about the REDvolution tour that is coming up. I am very excited for it! However, it seems quite redundant to entitle the article “RED to Headline REDvolution tour”. lol. Anyways, here’s the rest of the info about it.

 

 

(Nashville, Tenn.) Jan. 24, 2012 – Two-time GRAMMY nominated, Essential Records rock act RED kicks off its second headlining tour in five months, the “REDvolution Tour,” on Feb. 10. Visiting 20+ cities domestically, with special guests Thousand Foot Krutch, Manafest, Nine Lashes, and KIROS, the tour will also include a run of “RED only” dates throughout Europe

in April. 

 

A year since releasing its acclaimed third studio project, Until We Have Faces, RED continues to make massive career strides, venturing out on back-to-back headlining tours. Following its popular fall “Kill The Machine Tour,” RED sets the stage for an all-new endeavor, the “REDvolution Tour.” Kicking off two weeks from Friday, the tour will visit more than 20 cities across the U.S., including major markets Washington, D.C., Dallas, Las Vegas, and Phoenix, among others, through late March.

 

And for the first time, RED will headline its own European tour, taking the show abroad to cities in The Netherlands, Belgium, Germany, Switzerland, Russia and Ukraine.  Please refer to the tour itinerary following this release for additional information, or visit www.redmusiconline.com for an updated list of tour dates.

In addition to headlining its own tour, RED will be headlining select festival dates this summer as well, including Sonshine Festival in Minnesota.  Also, look for the band to make appearances at Alive Festival, Ichthus Festival, Creation East, SpiritSong, KingsFest, and Creation West, to name a few. Listen for the RED’s latest radio single “Who We Are,” now vying for adds at Christian CHR and Rock too.
