TV on the Radio frontman takes Rain Machine on tour

Kyp Malone's Rain Machine Announces European Tour

Kyp Malone's acclaimed new solo project Rain Machine has announced European dates for Spring 2010. The tour will kick off on March 25th in Italy and end three weeks later in Ireland.

Known for his work fronting celebrated Brooklyn art-dance ensemble TV on the Radio, Malone's new endeavor is a boundary pushing yet soulful amalgamation of musical styles crystallized by his distinctive and provocative lyrical imagery and voice. Rain Machine's self-titled debut is out now on ANTI records. The album features ten unflinchingly original and emotional songs mixing elements of modern jazz, blue-grass and blistering guitar driven rock into a refreshing new sound.

British publication NME said of a recent Rain Machine performance: "Kyp Malone's new project surpasses even his day job band for sheer inventiveness... It's undoubtedly one of the most wildly inventive and entertaining things anyone will hear all year."

Rain Machine just finished a supporting tour for seminal indie rock band The Pixies and a headlining tour in North America.
