Red Wanting Blue Releases New Video for ‘Audition’

Columbus, Ohio’s Red Wanting Blue has released the video for “Audition” from its just-released studio album From The Vanishing Point. The clip was shot at a hometown gig at the Newport Music Hall on October 13th, 2011 and in addition to eight professional videographers, the clip was also shot by the band’s fans. Encouraged to shoot the song with their smart phones, fans were then asked to send in the footage. Lots of these submissions made it into the final clip. It’s just another way that Red Wanting Blue engages its loyal audience and gives them a chance to be part of it all.

From The Vanishing Point made its Billboard debut in the Top 10 on the Billboard “Heatseekers” chart. From The Vanishing Point is the band’s first album of new songs since 2008’s These Magnificent Miles which was re-issued in 2010 after Red Wanting Blue signed with Fanatic Records, an EMI/Caroline-distributed record label based in New York City.

Red Wanting Blue Hits The East Coast


Photo Credit: Stephen Albanese
Columbus, Ohio’s Red Wanting Blue has the distinction of working with a Grammy-nominated producer (Jamie Candiloro, who is currently producing his second album with the band), a Tony-nominated producer (Ken Davenport, who directed the feature documentary film about Red Wanting Blue), and now an Oscar-nominated producer.

Red Wanting Blue was recently commissioned to write the original song “Magic Man” (listen below) for the end title sequence of the upcoming documentary feature film, Unraveled. The film is co-produced by Oscar-nominated producer Steven Cantor and is set to premiere at the Los Angeles Film Festival on June 17th with additional screenings on June 19th and 20th.

Unraveled profiles Marc Dreier, a prominent Manhattan attorney, who, just days before Bernard Madoff captured headlines as the largest Ponzi schemer in U.S. history, was arrested (and later convicted) for orchestrating a massive fraud scheme that netted hundreds of millions of dollars from hedge funds. The film documents Dreier’s period of house arrest as he awaits sentencing, candidly confessing his crimes for the camera.

On the night of the Unraveled premiere at the Los Angeles Film Festival on June 17th, Red Wanting Blue will be on the other side of the US, headlining the Mercury Lounge in NYC. This stop is part of a recently announced East coast run of dates for the band.

Red Wanting Blue will be previewing songs from its upcoming new studio album at these performances. The as-yet-untitled album is scheduled for release in the Fall. Meanwhile, Red Wanting Blue continues to support its current These Magnificent Miles album, a record about the road – a subject Red Wanting Blue leader Scott Terry recently told a hilarious story about for NPR’s Snap Judgment.

Red Wanting Blue – Magic Man by fanaticpro

Review: Red Wanting Blue – The Movie, You Might Cry…

“These Magnificent Miles: On the Long Road with Red Wanting Blue” is a documentary about the hardest working rock band in America – Red Wanting Blue. This movie follows band members Scott Terry, Greg Rahm, Mark McCullough, Eric Hall, Eddie Davis and Dean Anshutz as they record their eighth self‐produced album and hit the road in search of the rock and roll dream they’ve had since they were kids.

I’ve been a fan of RWB for a few years now and one of the things I always think whenever I see this band live is “Why aren’t they on the radio? How come more people don’t know about this fabulous band?” This touching film reveals just how difficult it is to be a touring indie band and portrays life on the road (for better and for worse). This DVD really touched me (it made me teary-eyed) as a music enthusiast who loves to see a happy ending for the underdog, I loved every “magnificent mile”!

The movie profiles each band member and features interviews with OAR and past members of Red Wanting Blue, plus never‐before‐seen concert footage of Red Wanting Blue! Includes Red Wanting Blue’s top songs like “Where You Wanna Go,” “Vegas,” “Probably Nothing,” “Gravity,” and “Finger In The Air.” It also includes two bonus music videos for “Venus 55” and “Where You Wanna Go”.

“These Magnificent Miles” was directed and produced by Ken Davenport an acclaimed Broadway producer. Ken fell in love with Red Wanting Blue over 5 years ago when he got dragged to see a cast member’s “boyfriend’s band”. Although he was skeptical after many years of seeing “emerging” artists in NYC, he went anyway and he was instantly hooked.

Director’s Statement:

But it wasn’t because that their music sounded better than half the songs I heard on the radio. It wasn’t because they delivered the most energetic live shows I’ve ever seen. And It wasn’t because after the show, they spent time talking to every single one of their fans, many which had followed them from their home state of Ohio just to see their New York City show.

It was because after it was all done, and the fluorescent lights came on in that dingy East Village club, they packed up their own instruments, loaded up their always breaking down bus, and drove off to the next town to do another show . . . just like they had been doing for the past thirteen years.

Bands like Red Wanting Blue usually have a shelf life of 2‐3 years at most if they don’t hit it big, and land that elusive record deal. But something was not only keeping this band together, but something was keeping this band going mile after magnificent mile in hopes of someday seeing their dreams come true.

So, I went along for the ride.

“These Magnificent Miles: On the Long Road with Red Wanting Blue” is available for $19.99 on www.redwantingbluemovie.com or you can win a copy from us – here.
