Dude. I found this song on Spotify and from the first second, I was like, "oh shit. This is some funky stuff right here." I'd just listened to a bunch a pop funk music, but it always kinda falls apart when it comes to vocals. But this kid. THIS KID. You guys have got ridiculous talent. Can't wait to hear what you put out next!
I can't stop listening to this song over and over again, it's perfect and the voice is amazing🤯. Please don't stop making such good music. greetings from Argentina 🇦🇷
I just saw they are scheduled to play on Nov.08 2023 at Darryl’s House in New York about an hour North of NYC . Glad I looked for them here. Great vibes
Wow! I just heard "Settling" on KBCO and I thought, "That is a great sound, I wonder if they are more than a one hit band?" Brother Sky was the next song I heard and I was even more excited! It is so fun to see and hear a BAND with such a fun and funky sound. Keep it coming and I will look for you at Red Rocks!!!
I don't usually care much for funk, but this song is next-level catchy with oodles of technical skill to back it up. How hasn't this reached the top 40 yet? Will definitely be following your material from here on out.
I haven't been this excited about a band in awhile. Also probably the first time I've regretted moving away from the NE. Thank god they picked up Settling on the radio. . One of those rare times I've looked up a band from the radio and discovered that their other music is even better!
Just saw you guys last night at Thunder Valley Casino with G. Love. FUCK YEAH! Great show. Great energy. Great talent. Keep it up and keep doing what you enjoy. Love the sound and showmanship. Good to see you all smiling. Hearing G. Love pull your two brass guys on-stage and letting them play with him was a BLAST. They KILLED it and I'm sure they had a fucking great time as well. What an adrenaline rush for them! Great stuff guys keep it up. Loved it. THANKS!
LYRICS: And it hits you like a brick You're never gonna get out of it That's fine, you never really get out of it But did you figure this as part of your plan Cuz if so stop Try and wiggle with the weight of it Do your best to try and reason with the weight of it Even as you fail at least you'll understand You spill your drink as you wander towards his table Trying your best to keep your cool, you're not completely sure you're able And that's fine May as well make friends with where you're going take your time You don't need me to tell you There are there are no normal nights May as well enjoy it When your only choice is chasing brother sky So hold on tight And maybe later you'll be better for it Maybe later they will say that you were truly better for it They wouldn't be the first to tell that sort of lie So pray that in the morning it'll be different Tell yourself that in the morning it'll be different Who cares about truth? Whatever helps you survive Cuz it's 5am And you're dripping like a sauna Wondering how does Tennessee get so cold in Fucking August And that's fine May as well make friends with where you're going Take your time You don't need me to tell you… I don't know what I'll tell my children when I'm older How their daddy went, went for exactly what he wanted It's a different kind of loving when you're not sure what to stay for It's a different kind of victory when you're not sure what you're playing for I'll be one man in the corner singing songs about religion Trying to get you to grow wings out of these shoulders you've been given You can fly So I will meet you where the morning sun shines bright You don't need me to tell you...
Holy crap, dude. You guys inspire to go out and make music like this myself; I freaking love you guys! I try looking for bands like you guys all the time, but you are a diamond in the rough! A HUGE DIAMOND. Definitely my favorite when it comes to funky vibes. Keep doing you. This is hype.
You guys should come up to Michigan, but if I have the make a trip to Canada or down south further I'll do it. Your sound is totally worth every mile. You guys are the reason I got into funk, but no other band stands up to your voice and bass guitarist.
Summer Camp Music Festival 2017 they will be in the Midwest. Stoked to see them for my first time... Hopefully I'll be able to bring them to the venue I work at in Milwaukee too
Favorite act I have started listening to in 2017, looking forward to finally seeing you live this summer at Summer Camp Music Festival. Hopefully I will be filming part of the set for the festival.
Just discovered you guys and are going to be at the Music Farm in Chucktown next week to see you open for G. Love. Keep the jams coming, I dig the grooves!!!
Hearing you off the spot was an experience like no other! You are truly so amazing! subscribed within a second and song is on replay.! Can't wait to tell others about you and looking forward to hearing more.(-:
Dang! Really dig it! Lots of cool stuff happening in this song. Especially the verse lines. Love the syncopation as well as the vocal rhythms, tough to put some of those syllables together. Especially " Maybe later they'll say that you were truly better for it" Props to you folks
Thanks so much Sindy! We'll be recording a brand spankin new record this weekend too! :) Stay posted for updates and we'll try and post those lyrics soon
Super fresh stuff! Found your music randomly on TH-cam recently and your EP has been in heavy rotation since. Really love the dynamic between the rhythm section and the songwriting chops you guys have already obviously developed. Out of curiosity, are you familiar with a band called The Main Squeeze? Some friends of mine, and your bands remind me of each other a lot. Definitely recommend giving them a listen if you haven't run across them before!
+Alex Carter Main Squeeze is awesome!! We'll actually be playing with them for the first time on February 26th in Montreal - we are super stoked! Honored to be compared with them, they're killing. Thanks so much for digging Alex - hope to see you at a show soon!
+Ripe Love That's awesome! You guys are gonna kill it together. Also just saw that you're playing tonight at Rockwood Music Hall, which is literally a 5 minute walk from where I work. Guess it's meant to be, see you guys tonight!
Alex Carter dude the first thought that came to mind was the similarities to Main Squeeze!! Def digging the sounds, and I don't mean to say it sounds the same, just that it's in the same vein and I totally freaking love it.
This song/video made me fall in love with Ripe
... it's a different kind of losing when you're not sure what you're playing for...
💯💯💯
This is one of the best songs I have heard in a long time.
Ryan - thank you! We're honored.
I feel the same!

i think my favorite thing about this other than the amazing music is just seeing everyone grooving out and having fun.
This song hits my soul like nothing I've ever heard before. Seriously one of the best tracks I've ever listened to. Keep doing your thang Ripe!
I can't stop listening to this song over and over again, it's perfect and the voice is amazing🤯. Please don't stop making such good music. greetings from Argentina 🇦🇷
Holy fuck 7 years old & still a banger? This band makes the universe a great place to be
Damn. I tried singing along with you. I couldn't hang for more than a few bars. Those are some super focused and athletic vocals,
I just saw they are scheduled to play on Nov.08 2023 at Darryl’s House in New York about an hour North of NYC . Glad I looked for them here. Great vibes
This feels like a new age cross between Steely Dan and Sublime and I love it 😍
How the fuck are you guys not more popular
They made it bro 🥲
Abso-f**king-lutely amazing show December of 19 in Denver. Hope they'll be back ASAP

It doesn't get better than this. You guys are on your way to the top. Keep up the good work.
marinozack1986 Humbled by your motivating words! Thank you!
Just saw you guys open for Twiddle in Buffalo last week. you guys absolutely killed it! You've got a fan for life! Love everything about you guys!

LYRICS:
And it hits you like a brick
You're never gonna get out of it
That's fine, you never really get out of it
But did you figure this as part of your plan
Cuz if so stop
Try and wiggle with the weight of it
Do your best to try and reason with the weight of it
Even as you fail at least you'll understand
You spill your drink as you wander towards his table
Trying your best to keep your cool, you're not completely sure you're able
And that's fine
May as well make friends with where you're going take your time
You don't need me to tell you
There are there are no normal nights
May as well enjoy it
When your only choice is chasing brother sky
So hold on tight
And maybe later you'll be better for it
Maybe later they will say that you were truly better for it
They wouldn't be the first to tell that sort of lie
So pray that in the morning it'll be different
Tell yourself that in the morning it'll be different
Who cares about truth?
Whatever helps you survive
Cuz it's 5am
And you're dripping like a sauna
Wondering how does Tennessee get so cold in Fucking August
And that's fine
May as well make friends with where you're going
Take your time
You don't need me to tell you…
I don't know what I'll tell my children when I'm older
How their daddy went, went for exactly what he wanted
It's a different kind of loving when you're not sure what to stay for
It's a different kind of victory when you're not sure what you're playing for
I'll be one man in the corner singing songs about religion
Trying to get you to grow wings out of these shoulders you've been given
You can fly
So I will meet you where the morning sun shines bright
You don't need me to tell you...
I need more. You've got me hooked up. I hope you churn that magic and bless us with moar! Cheers and love.
This is fantastic! Happy people playing happy music.
Thank you! Your words make us even happier :)
