Ripe is turning their show at Indian Ranch in Webster, MA on Saturday, August 10, 2024 into a full-blown beach party with special guests The Free Label, Bermuda Search Party, and Will Evans. The band will bring their high energy, horn filled fusion of rock, funk, and pop for an epic afternoon of live music and fun on the shores of Lake Chargoggagoggmanchauggagoggchaubunagungamaugg. A limited number of General Admission tickets are available for just $25 through July 4th weekend at www.indianranch.com.
“We can't wait to come out to Indian Ranch and play for all of you! We decided we wanted to lean into the fact that this show is right on the lake, and so now we're throwing a big beach party with a bunch of our musical friends,” according to the band. “We're hoping that between The Free Label, Bermuda Search Party, and Will Evans, one of them will be able to tell us how to properly pronounce the name of the lake we're going to be on! Come join us on the water, it's about to be a wonderful time!”
The live show has always been at the core of who Ripe is. Nationwide headline tours have hit prestigious venues like Boston’s MGM Music Hall at Fenway for a sold out hometown show as well as Terminal 5 in New York City and the Fillmore in San Francisco. The group has also been on the stages of the biggest festivals around the country including Bonnaroo, Firefly, SweetWater and Bottlerock.
Ripe drew acclaim from the likes of the Boston Globe, Huffington Post and WXPN with their first full-length album, Joy in the Wild Unknown. Bright Blues, Ripe’s sophomore album, enjoyed big excitement at radio, with the single “Settling” hitting top 15 at AAA and top 25 at ALT with over 16K+ radio spins garnering 15+million impressions and being featured as Alt Nation’s critical cut artist.
Featuring six multi-instrumentalists and vocalists from Toronto, Canada, The Free Label plays a unique fusion of 70s disco, 90s R&B, and high-energy funk, resulting in a captivating, dance-focused show. Unapologetically energetic, uplifting and with a live show that has been described as a “celebration of life”, Bermuda Search Party (FKA The Q-Tip Bandits) have emerged as a vibrant act that continues to touch audience’s hearts while getting them up on their feet. Will Evans pulls everyone into his embrace. He musically accesses a space without boundaries where all are welcome to commune openly and move freely. Through quotable folk-inspired lyrics, breezy grooves, and roots energy, it’s as if he’s giving you permission to be that pure self you can’t always be at work or even at home.
