GREEN ON RED - VALLEY GREEN: LIVE AT THE RIALTO

Using the cover of a 2005 anniversary celebration of a fashionable hotel in Tucson Arizona, Green On Red gathered at the Rialto Theater to honor the memory of a fallen comrade, drummer Alex MacNicol. Sharing the stage for the first time in nearly two decades, Green On Red played an emotional set of sloppy brilliance. Drifting down Congress Avenue, Green On Red asked tourists from Brazil, if they would care to shoot what was about to occur. Although the Brazilians were unable to understand English, they followed the band into the venue anyway, and the rest is history! Reviews from NME claim that Green On Red is “One of America's best live bands,” while the New York Times says, “Green on Red have been one of America's best bands for years.” Allan Jones from Uncut exclaims, “hymns to the dispossessed... brilliant essential listening.”
