Ride On Time

Incredibly, I'm seeing Ride live in concert for the very first time this Saturday (14th).

 

I'll save the whys and wherefores for the inevitable review, but as that might not appear until later next week, here are two of Ride's sessions for KEXP as an aperitif.

 

First up are songs (and an interview with host Atticus George-Andrijeski) recorded on 25th May 2024 and 'broadcast' on 16th August. The second session, presented by the wonderful Cheryl Waters, was a Christmas Day treat in 2017, recorded a few months previously, on 24th September.

Both six-song sets show a band as vital as they ever were and I am really looking forward to seeing them performing some, possibly all, of these songs and more in a few short days. 

If you enjoy this, there are plenty more Ride sessions available on the KEXP. Current album Interplay is excellent, as all of their 21st century albums have continued to be, and available digitally and physically from the usual purveyors of good music.
