Kieran Ridge writes songs about lovers and laborers, wandering strangers,
outcasts and outsiders. Songs of good times, hard times, the road and romance,
sung and played with faith, love, passion, intensity and desperation. The Kieran
Ridge Band is a back to basics roots rock and roll band - mixing together the
best elements of blues, country, and rock & roll into its own unique style.
Nowhere is this more evident as in the band’s most recent record Already
Gone.
Already Gone is an 11-song collection featuring ballads such us “Somewhere
On The Edge of Town”, and the haunting “The Drifter”; rockers “Nothing Left
to Lose,” the title track “Already Gone” and “Blinded by the Sight of You”; the
classic country feel of “When You’re Gone” and “Alone”; as well as the Celtic
influenced “Life Is Hard & Love’s Unfair.”
Songwriter, singer, guitarist Kieran Ridge is backed up by a versatile, multitalented group of Boston music veterans that comprise The Kieran Ridge Band.
Carlos Gonzalez plays lead guitar, mandolin, and sings backup vocals. John
Gillis plays drums. Josh Oliver plays bass. Jerek Dyson on keys and organ. Parker Richey on dobro. Bre Levere sings and plays percussion.
The Kieran Ridge Band has built an impressive following that continues to
grow. In fact, when their first record was released the response was immediate.
Glowing reviews came from radio, magazine and various media outlets across
the U.S. and Europe - unprecedented for an unsigned band. Show after show,
city after city, The Kieran Ridge Band make their presence known as audiences
feed off the fiery intensity and hang on the relentless rhythms. Shows have been played at legendary clubs all over New England, New York, New Jersey and Toronto including Toad, The Middle East, Harper’s Ferry, Silver Dollar, The
Bitter End and CBGB’s.
As the U.K. magazine Zeitgeist writes: “ Remember the name because The
Kieran Ridge Band should be around for the long haul.”
