Dead Rider is an innovative and genre-defying artist who has been pushing the boundaries of music for over a decade. With their unique blend of rock, electronic, and experimental sounds, Dead Rider has created a sound that is truly their own. Their music is characterized by intricate rhythms, haunting melodies, and thought-provoking lyrics.
Formed in Chicago in 2009, Dead Rider quickly gained recognition for their captivating live performances and unconventional approach to songwriting. Led by frontman Todd Rittmann's distinctive vocals and guitar work, the band creates a sonic landscape that is both mesmerizing and unpredictable.
With several critically acclaimed albums under their belt, including "Chills on Glass" and "Crew Licks," Dead Rider continues to push the boundaries of what is possible in music. Their fearless experimentation and willingness to take risks have earned them a dedicated fanbase around the world.

Drag City is a renowned music label that was founded by Dan Koretzky and Dan Osborn. With an impressive roster of artists, Drag City has established itself as a leading force in the music industry. Known for their diverse range of genres, the label has consistently released groundbreaking and influential albums. From indie rock to experimental folk, Drag City continues to push boundaries and nurture innovative talent.

Since its inception, Drag City has been dedicated to supporting artists who defy conventions and create unique sounds. The label's commitment to artistic freedom has allowed musicians to explore their creativity without limitations. This approach has resulted in a catalog of critically acclaimed albums that have resonated with audiences worldwide.

With an unwavering focus on quality over quantity, Drag City carefully curates its releases, ensuring each album receives the attention it deserves. Their meticulous attention to detail extends beyond the music itself, with beautifully designed album artwork and packaging that enhance the overall listening experience.

Dead Rider are up and rolling again, and Crew Licks is the latest job. After the thousand days and nights since Chills on Glass, Dead Rider had to overcome the creeping suggestion that they multitask themselves to sleep - or to premature brain death, whichever came first. Now they're ready to get into their Rolling Stones suit and thank you for letting them be themselves again; to extrude rude grooves, shattered r'n'b and mother's blues in a priapic triad. Tripped-out and overlaid, shedding the old fresh in search of new flesh, Crew Licks is a gateway they've been dreaming of building in their minds. If you're lacking for rhythm and imagination in your everyday nine-to-five, Dead Rider got the time for you! Just give a listen to the first single, a torched / scorched / morphed, does-this-even-count-as-a-cover?-cover evoking ghosts of the Dead. The beat of Ramble on Rose is lode-bearing, brick-house solid, but flexible and with room to breath. The groove creeps and wafts through the room with the gloss of eternal rhythm and blues, swelling the shades of a dusty, aphrodisiac evening.
