The Riders

The Riders is the name of more than two bands: 1) An Italian euro House act consisting of Pier Rossini, Paola Peroni, G. Cigala, and Luca Verzeletti. They released the singles "Bang" and "Burning Up". 2) "The Riders have come out the gates running by raising the bar and creating a tour de force album full of poignant and dynamic songs. After grabbing the attention of legendary hit-makers Richie Podolor and Bill Cooper (Three Dog Night, Steppenwolf, Michelle Branch) at their personal studio, The Riders recorded twelve songs ranging from the solo piano ballad ‘Too Far Away Tonight’ to the stadium rocker ‘Coalinga’. The album also features the Hammond B3, piano, and accordion prowess of modern day “wrecking crew” member and Grammy award winner Rami Jaffee of The Wallflowers. Rami is also known for his studio work with Johnny Cash, Ryan Adams, Melissa Etheridge, and the Foo Fighters to name just a few" “...comforting sound of being in the middle of a road trip...the vocals capture the nostalgia of the past, while the funky bass and power guitar ballads embody the optimism of undiscovered possibilities." - Relix Magazine "Great lyrics, memorable melodies, and a classic rock sound you always loved and always will. Roll down your windows, breathe in deep and sing out strong with the Riders" - WFDU - NJ “Bruce Springsteen + Bob Dylan + Bruce Hornsby + The Band = The Riders” - From The Future Music Read more on Last.fm.
