About
Ride are an English rock band formed in Oxford in 1988. The band consists of vocalists and guitarists Andy Bell and Mark Gardener, drummer Laurence "Loz" Colbert and bassist Steve Queralt. They have been recognised as one of the key pioneers of shoegaze, an alternative rock subgenre that emerged to prominence in the United Kingdom during the early 1990s.
The band's first two albums, Nowhere (1990) and Going Blank Again (1992), have been critically acclaimed as two of the greatest shoegaze albums of all time. The latter's lead single, "Leave Them All Behind", was the band's most commercially successful song, reaching No. 9 on the UK Singles Chart. Both Going Blank Again and its 1994 follow-up, Carnival of Light, peaked at No. 5 on the UK Albums Chart.
Ride broke up in 1996 prior to the release of their fourth album Tarantula, which received negative reviews. Bell joined Oasis in 1999 as their bassist. The band reunited in 2014 to tour again, and also put out the albums Weather Diaries (2017), This Is Not a Safe Place (2019) and Interplay (2024).

Ride est un groupe de rock alternatif britannique, originaire d'Oxford, en Angleterre. Appartenant au mouvement shoegazing, et formé en 1988 par Mark Gardener (en) et Andy Bell (composition, chant, guitare), le groupe était également composé du bassiste Stephan Queralt et du batteur Loz Colbert (en). Ils étaient alors tous âgés de moins de vingt ans. Ils sont considérés comme un des groupes fondateurs du mouvement shoegazing, notamment avec leur album mythique Nowhere sorti en 1990 et salué par la critique. Après la séparation du groupe, les membres ont tous poursuivi différents projets en solo. Andy Bell, l'un des membres fondateurs, deviendra plus tard le bassiste du groupe Oasis. En 2001, le groupe s'est reformé très brièvement pour un unique concert dans une émission télévisée.
À la fin 2014, le groupe annonce une tournée prévue au printemps 2015.
