The Radiotones - Bound To Ride

Radiotones (UK)
Bound To Ride
BRS012003
©Buzz Records 2003

Dave Arcari – National guitars/vocals
Jim Harcus – harmonica
Adrian Paterson – bass
Don McKinnon – drums

Radiotones' debut with it's full electric line up follows two successful acoustic albums.

ALT.BLUES terrorists RADIOTONES is a four piece band based in Perth Scotland playing original material that owes as much to trash country, rockabilly and punk as it does pre-war Delta blues.

RADIOTONES was formed in by National steel guitar player Dave Arcari in 1997as a three-piece acoustic trio and released two internationally acclaimed albums on Buzz Records - Gravel Road (BRS0198) in 1998 and Whiskey'd Up (BRS012000) in 2000. As well as attracting mainstream radio airplay in the UK,
these albums are still given heavy airplay by blues and roots radio around the world.

In late 2001 RADIOTONES decided to ‘go electric' and added a drummer to bring a whole new perspective to the music which is showcased on the band's latest release on Buzz, Bring My Baby Back (BRS012002).

Contrary to popular belief, RADIOTONES' name is not a combination of Radiohead and The Bluetones - it comes from a National guitar model called the 'Radiotone'.

To date, Radiotones has appeared live on digital, cable and mainstream terrestrial TV and played more than a dozen live sessions for BBC and independent radio including Dougie Vipond's Blues & Soul show (BBC Radio Scotland) , TGIF (BBC Radio Scotland) , The Scottish Connection (BBC Radio Scotland) and Jazz Waves (Radio Tay) .

RADIOTONES played to 15,000 people at Perth's Heart of Scotland millenium hogmanay festival and, more recently, a capacity crowd at Glasgow Barrowlands' Frankie Miller tribute show

Steve Tallis - Vocals, 6 & 12 String Guitars
Gary Ridge - Percussion
Dave Clarke - Violin, Harmonica, Sojo

Australian Griot Blues Shaman!

"As original as Captain Beefheart and Tom Waits. Trance inducing music. Part Buddha, Demon, Mad Angel"

"One of Australia's most eccentric and powerful singer - songwriters"

"One of the world's most unique, original, creative and fascinating songwriters"

"A free falling cross between Tim Buckley and Bob Dylan. Embodiment of the restless, independent artist"

"This music goes straight to the heart because it comes from the heart"

"Confronting, sensuous, primeval, anarchistic rhythms"

"Challenging - echoes of Bill Laswell"

"In a musical milieu that values tradition, he is a bit of a maverick, a loose cannon, a highly individual performer with a strong sense of self worth. I've never heard anyone outside the black music idiom perform a cappella field hollers with such power and commitment. Intense, uncompromising!"
"Australia's Bob Dylan"'
