Is this your band?

From roots music to abstract progressive rock to soul to ambient soundscapes, you become contently spellbound with a colorful musical aftertaste by a sound much greater than the sum of its parts (live shows: vocals, guitar, and drums). Ryan and Grady intermittently played in bands together for seven years before developing this project. Birthed in 2005, RTB2 has released an EP and a full-length, and they have toured Texas and the Midwest. Their current release, The Both of It, was recorded live-in-the-studio by Justin Collins in Denton, TX and appropriately captures the sound expected from their live set.
