TheRyders play a mix of instrumentals and vocals from mainly early 60´s, but also some newer and older material. Much of the sound is influenced by The Shadows.
TheRyders play at dances as well as 60´s evenings on pubs and clubs mainly around their home town Västerås (about 110 km from Stockholm). The group has played on concerts together with some of the great early Swedish popgroups as Hep Stars, The Shanes and The Boppers. They also have been on several radio shows and festivals. In 2004 The Ryders participated in The International Cliff Richard & The Shadows Fan Meeting in Tilburg, The Netherlands, and in 2005-2007 the group has performed both in Finland and in Germany at similar festivals. In May 2008 they participated at the Spotnicks Festival for the forth time. In June 2008 THE RYDERS will perform at the great Rautalanka Festival in Nastola, Finland.
