Sean Ryder Wolf, Paul McDowell, James Gibson, and Dave Staton, a.k.a. Another State, the UK’s pioneering pop-country fourpiece crossover male harmony band, have released their latest single ‘Ride Or Die’. Another State have garnered a dedicated following with their unique sound that bridges pop and country.
‘Ride Or Die’ is the third single from the band and follows the debut ‘All You Need’ and sophomore single ‘The Only One’ and showcases and the more raw country rock sound that the band have embraced. Sean Ryder Wolf knew two things about the track: firstly, that he had written something very different and very special and, secondly, that although he had the melodies but no other lyrics, this song simply had to have the title: ‘Ride Or Die’!
Immediately with having that song title in mind, the band knew the track was going to be a powerhouse of vibrant energy and super fun – or as Ryder Wolf puts it – “an exciting high octane ‘night out with your buddies’ sort of vibe … full of energy and one you can play loud when you’re driving!”.
The band loved collaborating while writing the song, Ryder Wolf claiming “it felt pretty liberating writing a song which had that ‘weekend’ feeling and had a lot of fun helping come up with lyrics which encompassed both being with your friends, and also having an exciting experience meeting a girl when you’re out.”
Ryder Wolf says when he originally presented the song to the other members of the band: “I came in and said: ‘ I think I’ve come up with something pretty special here’.” Indeed, it came to pass!
