Ridge Runner “The Rest of Us” – out now!

“The Rest of Us”, Ridge Runner’s most recent hit, is a full-throttle leap towards rock glory. With its pounding rhythms, gritty guitars, lush organ sounds, and a vocal delivery that grabs you by the ears and won’t let go, this song is a raw, no-frills rock and roll experience.

The band, led by Coleman Rigg, delivers a lively and focused performance, addressing polarizing politics, the military-industrial complex, and incompetent leadership. Despite these sombre topics, Rigg’s lyrics convey optimism and hope, evoking the energy of the USA.

“The Rest of Us” is a standout production, recorded live and mixed by Barney Cortez and Matt Poirier, showcasing the intensity of the band’s performance, resulting in a polished yet potent ending.

Rigg’s extraordinary voice adds depth and resonance to “The Rest of Us,” transforming the song into an encounter, delivering gentle phrases and booming choruses that make the listener feel every emotion.

On the release, Ridge Runners share, “Like many others, I’ve spent the last several years shaking my head and feeling discouraged by the news cycle. After a while, I realized that we always find ways to endure despite it all… I attribute this to the strength of the people. We support our leaders by going to work, paying taxes, going to fight their wars, raising good families for the next generation, and in a million other ways. While politics, business, and media get all of the attention, the spirit of the people is the unsung hero that keeps us going. This song is an ode to those who persist against all odds… the rest of us.”
