Ten Mile Rider
@tenmilerider
SC musician interested in a lot of other things, too. Solo music, experimental music, and 9-piece rock band releases: Long-form instrumental rock:
Posted this on Insta earlier - my band TenMileRide, a tribute of sorts to the Grateful Dead, performs Sat 8/1 to celebrate the big guy’s birthday. Long jams and lots of improv at the greatest venue on earth, the Charleston Pour House. Come see us!
Released a 40-minute jam today that touches on almost no Grateful Dead themes until the very end (bird song). Talking Heads, Pink Floyd, Phish, etc. Streaming everywhere but linking bandcamp for more info below
Went to String Cheese Incident last night in Charlotte. Exceeded my expectations and felt like a good ol’ fashioned night out with a party band. They played lots of styles but kept going back to dance/boogie throughout 10/10
Really, really enjoyed watching this at our local nonprofit cinema last night. Truly did not know how embedded Billy Preston was in everyone’s music. Bonus points for screening during Pride month too. 🏳️🌈
Just booked my tribute band on Jerry Garcia’s birthday and let me tell you we are going to light the place up. You’ll all be hearing about it!
Had a deep thought pedal board post queued up after rehearsal last night, then realized I was thinking too much. The joy of putting together a pedalboard is trying new things and having fun. Anyway here’s what I have for my gig this weekend
Submitted for the anti-ai poster fans. Funny film pic taken at phish merriweather with hand-drawn letters. TenMileRide is like an instrumental dead cover band that honors the improv rather than the song itself.
Playing a house show this weekend for the first time in decades. Gonna be fun! Current pedal board for the nerds (except I’ve replaced the TS9 with a Foxrox Octron for more fuzz)
A heady David Bowie is echoing throughout one of our local spots. #phish
#letterboxdfriday #lastfourwatched brought to you by my town’s nonprofit cinema’s FEMME FEST last weekend
Two new studio tracks up as RHYTHM & SOUL for #bandcampfriday. Some moody horns, disco grooves, and 80's sax rock. Give 'em a listen, won't ya?
One of my bands is playing a huge fest in SC and we’re recording new music and gonna play a lot more this year and it feels really great. Anyway if you’re in #columbiasc come see us on March 14 at St Pat’s in Five Points
Band tracked two songs in the studio this weekend. Horns and vocals this week. Sounding very groovy and think we’ll have them out soon!
Got to play music in Asheville this weekend to celebrate my birthday. Music is the best.
listening back to 10/15-16, 2010 and man those are some high energy shows. Would have been 15 years since the previous phish show in CHS and you can hear how excited everyone is. Highly recommend
Bruce Hornsby and the Noisemakers with the Charlotte Philharmonic!
If you’re anywhere near #columbiasc make the trip to our annual #Jerryfest Sunday, 10/5! TenMileRide, Stillhouse, Cosmic Charlie, Grateful Brothers, Grass is Dead 💀 🌹 ⚡️
