Album Notes

Ride or FLY is a deftly woven tapestry of musical colors. It is craftsmanship tailor-made with honeysuckle vocal harmonies, thick southern lead guitars, lively piano and B3 accompaniment all punctuated by a solid bass bottom and the hard-hitting backbeats of rock-n-roll. The journey taken with the “Road” also visits a contemplative landscape of soundscapes, performed by Tony Perrino, and the breakneck howl of a blues harp.

Penned by RTO`s founders, Neil Goes and Alex Higgins, Ride or Fly spans wide vistas of contemporary musical vernacular, politically-minded statements and internal dialogues. The duo's vision is a songwriting ethos of an American experience lived first-hand, confidently rooted in the blues, folk, country and 70`s rock influence. Alex Higgins delivers this 11- song tale with a stunning vocal performance of chilling sensitivity and authenticity.
