Rose City Band is a salve for tired minds boxed in by the desk and the clock — a road trip for the soul, whether your body tags along or not. Their sound draws from familiar wells — country, bluegrass, folk, rock ’n’ roll — but feels freshly spun. Sol y Sombra has a 70s swing and shimmer, yet its soft-focus emotional arc recalls the bittersweet introspection of late-90s and early-00s indie. Whether you’re here for its cinematic sweep or simply the spiritual lift of Ripley Johnson’s melodies, there’s no overt message or story — just a wide-open invitation to choose your own adventure.
Led by guitarist and vocalist Ripley Johnson, Rose City Band weaves sun-kissed, timeless country rock that carries the joy of its creation while never ignoring the shadows lurking at the edges. Alongside pedal steel wizard Barry Walker, keyboardist Paul Hasenberg, and drummer John Jeffrey, the band blends rhythmic propulsion with lush, atmospheric beauty. Sol y Sombra digs into insatiable grooves, conjuring the feel of a sunset drive through open desert — both a celebration of the journey and a yearning for home’s quiet glow.
