Columbus, Ohio-band Red Wanting Blue will perform on this week’s edition of the long-running NPR radio program “Mountain Stage,” heard on 100-plus affiliates nationwide. The episode also includes appearances by Dr. Dog and The Mountain Goats. Video of Red Wanting Blue’s performance of the song “Hope On A Rope” has been made available here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VqXdYZ4IxR8. Red Wanting Blue is currently in Canada, performing as direct support on a series of sold-out shows by Canadian radio favorites, The Trews.

Next, Red Wanting Blue will return to the states for a sold-out show in Pittsburgh and a New Year’s Eve performance at The Kent Stage in Kent, OH before launching its “From The Vanishing Point” Winter Tour 2013 which has now added dates in San Luis Obispo, San Diego, Vancouver, Denver and Omaha. The tour also includes a headlining appearance at NYC’s Bowery Ballroom on March 9^th, 2013 as well as Red Wanting Blue’s second voyage on The Rock Boat cruise, which this year also features Brandi Carlile, Good Old War, Scars On 45 and more.

Check out more music: Red Wanting Blue’s session for Daytrotter that the band taped in September has now debuted and a music video for the latest Red Wanting Blue single “Stay On The Bright Side” (shot on a day off from tour in Queens this summer) has also been premiered via Paste. The single itself is available as a free download now via Rolling Stone.

Following the release of the band’s From The Vanishing Point album in January, 2012, Red Wanting Blue has seen increased attention paid to the sound that band leader Scott Terry has been bringing to America, and building a growing, devoted following for, over the past decade. Since signing a record deal after more than a half-dozen self-released albums, Red Wanting Blue has appeared on David Letterman, sold-out Cleveland’s 1300-capacity House of Blues in advance, and seen its first album recorded for a label land in the Top 10 on the Billboard “Heatseekers” chart. Essentially, Red Wanting Blue’s story is a textbook case of local boys making good.

Scott Terry of Red Wanting Blue is available for interviews. Contact Josh Bloom at Fanatic for more information.
