Kieran Ridge has often been referred to by reviewers as "one of the best up and coming singer-songwriter talents of our time." Critics have consistently compared him to some of the greatest songwriters and performers who have ever lived, people like Bruce Springsteen, Steve Earle, and Bob Dylan.

Kieran has written hundreds of songs that stand out as something truly authentic. Songs about lovers and strangers, losers and winners, drifters and wanderers, outcasts and outsiders. Songs of good times, hard times, the road, and romance, sung and played with faith, love, passion, intensity and desperation.

The Kieran Ridge Band is a back to basics Americana band - mixing together the best elements of Blues, Classic Country, and Rock & Roll into their own unique style.

The Kieran Ridge Band is: Kieran Ridge on lead vocals, guitar and harmonica. Karl Grohmann on drums, percussion and backup vocals. Scott O'Grady on Dobro. And Alan Uhler on upright bass.

Glowing reviews have come from radio, magazines and various media outlets across the U.S. and Europe for The Kieran Ridge Band. Their music has been played on radio shows across the U.S., Canada, and Europe. Recently, several tracks have been featured on Freight Train Boogie, as well as getting regular play on Boston's WUMB. The band is currently in the studio working on a new CD, due to be released in the Summer of 2011.

As the U.K. magazine Zeitgeist writes: "Remember the name because Kieran Ridge should be around for the long haul."
