Bosnian Rainbows has unveiled the video for their single “Turtle Neck”, on RollingStone.com. The video, which was assembled and directed by guitarist/founder Omar Rodriguez-Lopez, is dizzying and surreal, a stop-motion visual journey that follows Rodriguez-Lopez, Teri Gender Bender, Deantoni Parks and Nikki Kasper as they circle the world.
For more sneak peeks and behind the scenes clips, stay tuned to their YouTube channel BosnianRainbowsTV, where you can also watch the video for “Turtle Neck”.
The band marches on with their extensive touring schedule, adding West Coast dates in San Diego, Los Angeles, Santa Ana and San Francisco–as well as adding some new European dates with Tomahawk. Their live shows continue to draw rave reviews including:
“While Rodriguez-Lopez may be happy to describe the act as ‘a four piece, very stripped down affair,’ the combination of his energetic, frenzied playing style coupled with Teri Gender Bender’s ferocious stage presence is nothing short of electrifying.”-METROMIX
“a hard-rocking group of vets ripping through songs while sounding as fresh as a gleaming spectrum of color over the bleak streets of Sarajevo.”-CHICAGO INNERVIEW
“Rodriguez-Lopez’s uncanny ability to mutate his flailing notes into luscious symphonies coupled with front-lady Teri Gender Bender’s ‘unique’ stage presence gives Bosnian Rainbows a certain grace on the front lines of the battle for the preservation of today’s music.”-LISTEN ASHEVILLE
–not to mention rapturous receptions from capacity audiences–this is one phenomenal new act you you don’t want to miss. See below for all tour dates.
