Radkey Hits The Road For Opening Dates With Foo Fighters, Lollapalooza
Fresh off a handful of dates opening up for Foo Fighters and performance at Lollapalooza this past weekend, Radkey has wasted no time getting in front of large audiences and winning them over, fan by fan, with their infectious rock sound.
As Chicago Sun-Times states, “Based on their explosive sound, catchy hooks and gritty vocals, you’d expect these three to have been around a few blocks and hailed from one of the two rock meccas: Detroit or New York City. But they’re barely out of their teens. And from Missouri.” As pre-teens growing up in small-town Saint Joseph, MO, brothers Dee, Isaiah and Solomon Radke enrolled in rock ‘n’ roll high school as their ticket out of Nowheresville. The brothers played their first show opening for Fishbone in 2011 and haven’t looked back since.
Radkey is currently out on the road opening for select dates for Foo Fighters as part of their 26th Anniversary Tour, after appearing in Dave Grohl’s new documentary What Drives Us. They will be performing at Alternating Currents in Davenport, IA on August 21, Riot Fest in Chicago, IL on September 17, and will also be direct support to Local H during their The Lifers Retour 2021 in September to November. A full list of tour dates can be found below.
Radkey’s latest album Green Room was self-released and crowd-funded by fans around the world, proving that DIY is not only possible but that it is well and thriving. New Noise Magazine explains, “by playing a retro style of hard rock/punk (while adding newer layers like sludge), the band is able to tune into an overall feel that hasn’t really existed since the dawn of Nirvana: seriously good rock that doesn’t take itself so seriously.” Green Room can be streamed here.
