When you’re footing the bill for the whole recording process, you’ve got to have a passion for the sound you’re creating, a dedication, and the need for others to understand your message. Scott Van Ryper and Aimee Nash of The Black Ryder have done just this for their debut album, Buy The Ticket, Take The Ride, filled with scenes from all ends of the human experience. They want to take you on a ride to show you just how hard they’ve worked. Catch them May 4 at Santos Party House.
