Ripe – Play The Game
Format: (Clear Vinyl)

Following their critically acclaimed Bright Blues and a run of sold-out shows nationwide, Ripe return with Play The Game — their most ambitious and electrifying release yet. Produced by the legendary Joe Chiccarelli (The White Stripes, My Morning Jacket, The Front Bottoms), the album showcases the band’s evolution while staying true to their infectious blend of pop-rock energy and tight horn-driven arrangements.

Described by The Boston Globe as “a highlight of the national festival scene,” Ripe delivers soaring melodies and emotionally resonant lyrics, crafting songs that are equal parts danceable and cathartic. Play The Game captures the full spirit of the band’s celebratory live shows, while offering deeper layers for repeat listens.
