**STATE RADIO ANNOUNCE 2009 TOUR**
LAST SHOW OF 2008 TO TAKE PLACE IN DC ON DECEMBER 26th in CELEBRATION OF PRESIDENT ELECT BARACK OBAMA
STATE RADIO IS IN THE STUDIO WORKING ON THEIR THIRD ALBUM
Punk rock reggae trio STATE RADIO have announced an early 2009 US tour that kicks off on January 14 in Tucson, AZ and wraps on February 21 in Providence, RI. The socio-politically conscious band has been on the road since early 2008 supporting their sophomore studio album Year Of The Crow (Ruff Shod/February 08), which Metro NY described as “a biting collection of 13 tracks taking aim at, among other things, U.S. detention facilities in Guantanamo Bay and policies in South America, not to mention Halliburton and the current state of affairs in Darfur.”
State Radio will play their last show of the year on December 26 at the 9:30 Club in Washington, DC, and are calling it an early “welcome to the neighborhood” party for President Elect Barack Obama.
Free Download of the Single, “Right Me Up”
“Right Me Up” is a mellow yet funky tune with reggae hints and a rock undertone. It just happens to be one of my personal favorites…but than again I pretty much dig everything from State Radio! Take a listen for yourself and download the MP3 for FREE.
