(STROUDSBURG, PA) -- American drummer Richard Reinhardt, best known by his stage name Richie Ramone, will perform at the Sherman Showcase room of the Sherman Theater in Stroudsburg on March 29. The show will open with support from Rubix Pube and The Mesos. Ramone was the drummer for the punk band The Ramones in the '80s. Doors are 6:30pm; Showtime is 7:30pm.
Richie Ramone is best known for his stint with punk trailblazers The Ramones. He was the band's third drummer and played on three of their albums in the '80s as well as contributing songwriting and vocals on several tracks.
Richie continues to write and record music, having successfully forayed into the film industry as both an actor and soundtrack composer. He made his acting debut in the indie films HEADCHEESE the movie (released in 2020), and quickly followed that up with the lead role in Protoge Moi, while also contributing tracks for both films. Most recently he will appear in Youthquake, and Vengeance 2 Bloodlines — coming out in 2022.
Richie recently completed a new single, I’m Not Afraid (Outro Records), along with a cover of Cry Little Sister for the soundtrack to Protoge Moi. The Last Time (the critically acclaimed tribute to his father who passed away in 2018), followed up the success of his second CD Cellophane (August 2017), and a 7” single for the track “I Fix This.” Prior to this, Richie dropped his first solo album, Entitled, which featured new songs written by Richie as well as new recordings of the classic songs he wrote for the Ramones.
Richie’s song, Somebody Put Something in My Drink, became a Ramones fan favorite and was included on Ramones Mania, one of only two Ramones albums to go gold, as well as Loud, Fast Ramones: Their Toughest Hits, an album comprised of songs hand picked by Johnny Ramone as the Ramones’ best works.
