RADIO MOSCOW: New LP ‘Magical Dirt’ Due Soon + DesertFest Appearances & Euro Tour Beckons
Parker Griggs is one of the few out there whose musical history is worthy of a film (on stage fighting, drug busts, attitude…), but beyond that he is a truly astounding guitar player worthy of the past masters who inspire him.
RADIO MOSCOW (his esteemed power trio) will release their fourth studio album, aptly entitled Magical Dirt this June. Paker, along with recent partners-in-crime Anthony Meier (bass) and Paul Marrone (drums), have cultivated yet another blues-rock masterpiece that crossbreeds late ’60s psych-rock and face-melting guitar histrionics with the foundation-crumbling rhythms from early ’70s hard-rock, and even includes a couple of harrowing tracks built from the bedrock of rural Delta blues. But more than merely digging up fossils from rock’s revered past, Griggs & Co. manage to translate the myths of rock ’n’ roll’s golden age into modern day truths for a new, younger generation.
Before the release of the album RADIO MOSCOW will tour Europe with an appearance at London’s Camden Underworld for DesertFest alongside Parker’s ex-patriots now in Blues Pills. Who knows what will happen?
