The Red Paintings have been hand-picked as direct support for the NYC-based electronic punk group Mindless Self Indulgence this April & May for their upcoming album release tour of North America.  MSI (as they're often referred to by both fans and detractors, alike) are a band that's fiercely independent and stunningly visceral in both their recorded material and their live shows. TRP will return to the US with a new stage show, new single to US radio and new US label to go with. Yes we will need artists and human canvases and we want YOU to be a part of TRP’s creative circus to join us on stage painting in real time to the music or offering your body as a human canvas to be painted on stage in our NEW stage show exclusive to the upcoming US tour.

We are excited to announce TRP will be hitting America from March 26th – April 7th, 2012 for a promotional run of dates labelled “The Futureless USA Tour”.

The FUTURELESS tour brings a creative new stage show to the USA, showcasing songs from the bands forthcoming album. The live experience incorporates cello, violin, piano, drums, bass, guitar and vocals. The show is an artistic reflection on the potential outcome of conscious human neglect of our natural resources. At each show, artists and audience members are encouraged to join the band on stage to express (through painting) their individual visions through connecting with the music. In addition to painting on traditional canvases, the artists also paint on “human canvases”. Each TRP stage show is a unique collaboration between the audience, art and the band, while in real time, recognizing and confronting important issues. Through this interaction, the band creates a uniquely more engaging experience.
This tour is in support of the official USA release of the newly mixed track ‘The Streets Fell Into My Window’ and award winning music video. The video has been screened and winning awards across film festivals and internet blogs all over the globe.
