Riding The Low

Riding the Low is lo-fi, raw guitar rock with the fat cut out - no five minute jams or extravagant guitar solos. During the group’s short history, they have produced such punchy anthems as ‘Easy On Our Own’ and ‘Live From The Tramp Fights’ on a prolific scale, often debuting new songs at each show.
The Low’s live sets are as unrestrained as their songs; they’re there to have as good a time as the crowd - the louder you clap, the longer they’ll play. The vibrant atmosphere the band provoke through open banter has earned them a group of loyal followers, known as ‘Low Riders’.
