Ride are one of the leading lights of the early 90’s shoegaze scene, made up of Andy Bell, Mark Gardener, Laurence Colbert and Steve Queralt. Formed in 1988, their debut album Nowhere has been named as one of the most important albums of the shoegaze genre. The band broke up in 1996, with members moving on to various projects, with Andy Bell becoming the bassist for Oasis.
Ride reformed in 2014, releasing their first album in over 20 years in 2017. ‘Weather Diaries’ was greeted by a raft of critical and commercial acclaim, reaching number 11 in the UK album charts. It also saw Ride reunited with Wichita Records’ Dick Green and Mark Bowen, who worked with the band during their early years on Creation Records.
