Ride

Ride stand as one of the most enduring names in British alternative music, renowned for their pioneering blend of britpop, dream pop, and the defining textures of shoegaze. Originating from the United Kingdom in 1988, Ride rapidly attracted critical and fan attention with their lush melodies, swirling guitars and innovative approach to the genre. Their discography reflects an adventurous spirit, with standout releases such as the celebrated album "Interplay" released in March 2024, and earlier works like "Weather Diaries" and "This Is Not a Safe Place," each record further establishing their influence within the UK rock landscape.

The band continue to impress audiences with their commanding live performances. Notably, Ride headlined concerts at landmark venues such as the O2 Academy Brixton in February 2026 and Dublin's National Stadium in 2024. These events have seen the group reaffirm their position as a headlining act, delivering dynamic shows that showcase both new material and fan favourites drawn from a distinguished catalogue.

For those eager to experience Ride in person, a series of major concerts are set for February 2027, including headline slots at Manchester's Albert Hall and London's O2 Academy Brixton.
