The Black Ryder

Having sold out Cherry Bar a few months ago, The Black Ryder are returning to Melbourne on Nov 19 to rock The Tote and launch their debut album Buy The Ticket Take The Ride. Using three guitars, tight rhythms, vocal harmonies and a fuckload of guitar pedals ...to bring forth staggering waves of psychedelic shoegaze glory, The Black Ryder are saddled up and rearing to get back down to Melbourne town.

Joining this psychedelic locomotive are Sydney Psyfolk Raptor Killed 2 Birds, as well as local bands Slight Of Build and Dreaming Of Ghosts.

Be sure not to miss it.

The Black Ryder play The Tote on Nov 19
with Killed 2 Birds (Syd), Slight O Build, Dreaming Of Ghosts

Time:8:00PM Thursday, November 19th

I'm guessing the Larimer Lounge might be where you will play in Denver. It's a good one...intimate, dark, um and gritty, but that works. 2010 is looking to be a great year ;-)

The Black Ryder Thanks Rolling Stone Magazine: "Buy the Ticket, Take the Ride is sprawling, slow-burning psyche rock that paints creeping moods with layer upon layer of drony, blissed-out guitars and etheral vocals.... This is the perfect accompaniment to slowly losing your mind (in the best possible way). Don't come looking for big c...horus or bubblegum blurts - just settle in for the long, blissed-out ride."
