Featured Music - Episode 2 - Rodeo and Juliet

The Song in the Show:
In episode 2 of Ride, Isabel is still reeling with how to save the ranch and keep it running successfully. She comes down the stairs into her office, and it’s clear that the pressure of her next step is weighing heavily on her. Peter Bradley Adams’ gravelly, hard-hitting americana rock song “The Mighty Storm” colors the scene, and it couldn’t be more fitting for Isabel’s stormy emotions. She isn’t sure what to do, but we see her make a phone call, and she says that they need a plan B.

A singer-songwriter whose work is musically subtle but emotionally forceful, Peter Bradley Adams was born in Birmingham, Alabama and grew up in a musical family, taking inspiration from his grandfather, a jazz musician proficient in the piano and clarinet. Adams' brand of Americana nestles his often delicate, always heartfelt voice in the warm embrace of gentle guitar, tasteful dobro, subtle banjo, supportive bass, and unhurried percussion.

The Song in the Show:
Aaron Allen’s upbeat country-rock track “Can We Go Back” leads us into a book signing at Canyon Café for podcast host and author – Desiree Lockhart – where Missy is attending. Missy’s angling to get on Desiree’s podcast, These Boots Were Made for Talkin’, as she’s promised Frontier Jeans a doubling of the brand’s exposure in a week. Desiree tells her that if she wants to talk about the Frontier brand on her show, they’ll need to pay to advertise just like her other sponsors. But once Missy drops in that she’ll talk about her former rodeo-star husband Austin McMurray, Desiree can’t book her fast enough.

The Song in the Show:
Back at the ranch, Isabel and potential investor Gus do rounds as he wants to see more of what goes into the day-to-day. They feed the baby calves with Missy, and Gus marvels at how special this place and family is, and tells them he’d like to be involved if they’d let him. The Bros. Landreth’s soft Americana track “What In The World” plays as they discuss his potential involvement. While Isabel and Missy see what positivity Gus can bring to the ranch, Cash arrives and isn’t so sure.
