Ride Along!

Ride Along!

Award-winning San Diego psych rock band Joy will release its new album, ''Ride Along!,'' on April 29 via Tee Pee Records. Produced by vocalist/guitarist Zack Oakley, ''Ride Along!'' contains nine new Joy compositions and a searing cover of ZZ Top's 1971 song ''Certified Blues.'' The sound of Joy has been described as ''a spaced-out sonic groove-ride'' and ''outer reach freak out,'' but that hyperbole alone doesn't do justice to the group's measured mode of attack. Joy deliver a deafening gauntlet of heavy psychedelia where no riff is left unturned. ''Ride Along!'' is a ferocious testament to the chest-shaking power of rock & roll! ''Ride Along!'' is the widely-anticipated follow up to Joy's 2014 release, ''Under The Spell Of Joy,'' which was named Best Hard Rock Album by the San Diego Union-Tribune at the 2014 SD Music Awards. Joy's latest features guest contributions from an all-star lineup of Cali psych rock heroes, including Earthless drummer Mario Rubalcaba, Radio Moscow guitarist Parker Griggs and guitarist Brenden Dellar, of Tee Pee labelmates Sacri Monti!
