Hauntingly beautiful and glimmering with folk pop, THE FAMILY TREE: THE ROOTS continues to garner critical praise. NPR Austin noted the “Songs are lyrically heavy, dealing with life, death, murder, love, and everything in between. Cooper makes it all fit together with melodies that straddle the line between pop and folk. It’s those blurred boundaries between old and new that make Radical Face worth listening to. The album’s first single, ‘A Pound of Flesh,’ is a dark cut that nevertheless bounces along on a bed of acoustic guitars and Cooper’s intimate voice.” –Art Levy (9/29/11).
After sold-out shows in San Francisco, Los Angeles (Bootleg Theater), Arlington, VA and New York City (Webster Hall Studio), RADICAL FACE will kick off a European Tour beginning January 24 in London and wrapping February 9 in Switzerland at the One of a Million Festival (dates below). RADICAL FACE–who has shied away from live performances in the past–will bring overseas fans a unique concert experience that transcends traditional boundaries with an intimate yet animated set featuring a full backing choir. Expect more news soon re a North American tour for the spring of 2012.
