Riptide Radios

Riptide Radios is a Southern California power trio blending raw, grungy energy with melodic hooks that stick like sea salt in your hair. Born from late-night jam sessions and surfside vibes, this band knows how to hit hard and leave you humming. Led by bassist/vocalist Ryan Flores, with Aaron T. Smith shredding guitar and Jonny Beats pounding drums, they serve up alternative rock with a dash of post-grunge grit. Think big choruses, darker undertones, and just the right amount of weird to keep things interesting.

We write songs for the restless, the dreamers, and the ones who’ve got sand in their shoes and chaos in their hearts. Grab your board, crank it up, and ride the wave. 🌊
