Missouri punk trio Radkey to play Hare & Hounds

Radkey is a punk band from St. Joseph, Missouri made up of three teenage brothers: Dee, Isaiah, and Solomon. Inspired by the music they grew up listening to such as the Misfits, Ramones, the Who, and Death, the self taught trio decided to form a band.

The three-piece had the pleasure of opening for Fishbone, Local H and Supersuckers and performed at the 2012 Afro-punk Festival in Brooklyn NY as well as playing an official 2013 SXSW showcase. Now, back in 2014 with new EP Devil Fruit, the trio embark on a UK tour this February calling at Birmingham’s Hare & Hounds on Mon 24th February 2014.

“…there’s also something much more melodic, more carefree in their slashery. It’s the Misfits, but it’s also Weezer, early Foos, Nirvana, all mixed with the rich pickings of ’70s dude-rock and punk they tore out of their dad’s record collection: Led Zep, The Who, Sabbath, Ramones.” – NME
