The legendary hitmakers Russell Hitchcock and Graham Russell of Air Supply have teamed up with Soft Rock 102.5 FM KEZK in St. Louis, Mo. for the second-ever “Paint The Town” event. In association with one of the country’s top syndicated radio hosts, Delilah, and her longtime sponsor Home Depot, KEZK will give part of America’s longest Main Street situated in the nearby town of Belleville, Ill. a fresh coat of paint October 15-17 when more than 500 volunteers gather to repaint nearly 60 buildings throughout the city’s bustling downtown area.

The three-day event culminates in a special performance by Air Supply on October 17 to thank all the hardworking volunteers who help make the event possible. The free show will take place at dusk in the city’s public square and is open to all ages. For more information, visit http://kezk.radio.com/paint-the-town.

The pop duo is also celebrating their debut on the Top 30 Billboard A/C and R&R (Radio and Records) Chart with their new single “Faith In Love” which is the second consecutive track to debut in the Top 30. Earlier this year, Air Supply scored their first Billboard chart hit in 17 years with “Dance With Me,” the infectious first single from Mumbo Jumbo - their Odds On Records debut and first album of original material in eight years – which hit the Billboard Adult Contemporary Singles chart.

On the day of Mumbo Jumbo’s release, Russell and Hitchcock were featured in a prominent article in Billboard Magazine titled “Still Supplying The Hits After 35 Years.” The online version of the piece includes audio snippets from Billboard writer Gary Trust’s interview in which Russell and Hitchcock discuss touring, songwriting and Australia’s music scene.

Graham Russell was honored with a BMI Million-Air Certificate just weeks after the article, recognizing 3 million performances of the duo’s hit “All Out Of Love.”

Air Supply continues to tour the world after a whirlwind schedule these past few years that has included hundreds of concerts everywhere from The Philippines and Singapore to Malaysia, China, Taiwan, Thailand, Israel, Brazil, Argentina and Vietnam.
