Brighton's
Blood Red Shoes return to North
America for the second time in six months for five shows with The Joy Formidable and a coast-to-coast headline run.
The
duo of Laura-Mary Carter and Steven Ansell have been busy in the studio as
well: they released their third full-length In
Time To Voices in July of 2012, and the Water
EP dropped just last month via V2 / Cooperative Music. January also saw the
re-release of their first two records, Box
of Secrets & Fire Like This,
also on V2 / Cooperative Music.
For
a taste of the pair's bombastic live shoes take a peak at the new video for
explosive track "Red River". The video contains live and on-the-road
footage of the band's recent tour in Russia, which saw the band encounter the
full force of the Russian Customs officers, travel through snow after shows,
and spark mosh pits in Moscow and St Petersburg.
Expect the same level of excitement from the restless outfit this time
around. "We planned to spend most of 2013 working on new material after touring
like motherfuckers last year," says drummer/vocalist Steven Ansell. "But we
realized that we'd go insane if we stayed in one place too long. Plus the last
North American tour we did was a blast and kind of inspired us with new songs
anyway. So we're heading back over for a few weeks again, hitting some familiar
places and breaking some new ground too. It'll be cool to play the songs off
our new EP because some of them were actually inspired by our time on the road
in North America in late 2012."
