Marc Ribler's Story Road releases "Every Picture Tells A Horror Story"

originally published: 09/01/2023

Marc Ribler, singer-songwriter-musician-producer and music director for Stevie Van Zandt has just dropped the next single ("Every Picture Tells A Horror Story") from his latest band project, Story Road.

The band features Ribler on guitar and vocals, Charley Drayton on Drums and Jack Daley on bass. The trio hunkered down in a rock n roll bunker called Dug Deep Studios and poured their hearts and souls into Ribler’s songs in the cold dark days of the COVID 19 pandemic. Brace yourself for the rockin rollercoaster ride of your life!

Ribler says, "Every picture tells a horror story. The title speaks for itself. We all watched in horror and disbelief, as we nearly lost what it took 250 years to achieve. And that’s only the tip of the iceberg. This land we love appears to be getting more fragile by the minute. Let’s find the light and keep it burning friends!"

Stream "Every Picture Tells A Horror Story" and Pre-order/Pre-save the upcoming album 'Armageddon' HERE.

Prior to his role as musical director and guitarist for Little Steven & The Disciples Of Soul over the past several years, Marc served in the same capacity for Darlene Love and longtime Rolling Stones backing vocalist Bernard Fowler. He has performed with rock and soul royalty such as Paul McCartney, Bruce Springsteen, Carole King, Elvis Costello and Bettye Lavette.

Marc has been in the music business since he was a 14-year-old New Jersey kid. “I started out playing the Jersey bars, the high school dances and all the storied Jersey shore Rock & Roll haunts like The Fast Lane and Stone Pony in Asbury Park,” says Ribler. He graduated to songwriting and production work, getting his first cut as a writer at age 23, then a development deal with RCA Records. Marc’s songs have charted in the American Top 40 as well as Canada and abroad.

"When Marc isn’t putting together amazing bands for me, he’s writing great songs and has been doing it for years. His new album for Wicked Cool plays like a greatest hits collection. He can do it all."- Steven Van Zandt

EVENT PREVIEWS

TD

TD James Moody Jazz Festival: Pianist George Cables

In 1976, tenor saxophonist Dexter Gordon made a triumphant return to the United States after spending 14 years living in Copenhagen. He quickly established a working quartet with George Cables on piano, Rufus Reid on bass, and Eddie Gladden on drums. Cables, who will turn 81 on November 14, believes being hired by Gordon was a pivotal point in his career. "Up until that time," he said, "I was spending a lot of time with the electric piano and with other keyboards -- clavinet, synthesizer, and the like. With Dexter, for me, it was rediscovering the piano."
