The hybrid of classic country song craft and psyche-rock sounds inform the spirit of Nashville native songwriting duo of Jack Quiggins and Ryan Jennings—known throughout all music scenes as Teddy and the Rough Riders. The group’s latest single, “Hippies,” personifies that ethos to the nth degree with a rowdy, driving groove and interjecting, fuzz-laden guitars. “‘Hippies make the best country music’ is a line said to me after I show I played while I was backing Whitey Morgan,” remembers Quiggins.

Born and raised just a few minutes from Nashville’s Music Row, Teddy and the Rough Riders—the songwriting/vocal duo of Jack Quiggins and Ryan Jennings—blossomed in Nashville’s alternative-rock boom of the 2000s, spearheaded by the likes of Jack White and JEFF the Brotherhood. Through experimentation and sharing stages with groups like The Raconteurs and Natural Child, they naturally merged their rock leanings with the traditional country roots of Music City, developing a sound that is uniquely cosmic-Americana.
