Rye Coalition

Rye Coalition, often hailed as the "hard luck five," is an American rock band that emerged from the gritty musical landscape of Jersey City, New Jersey, in the early 1990s. Characterized by their raw, punk-infused energy and eclectic fusion of hard rock, punk, and indie sounds, the band comprises vocalist Ralph Cuseglio, guitarists Jon Gonnelli and Herb Wiley, bassist Justin Angelo Morey, and drummer David Leto. With their DIY ethos and relentless gigging, they earned a die-hard fanbase and respect within the underground music community.

The band’s discography exhibits a raucous journey through the evolving alternative rock scene, marked by several critically acclaimed releases. Their 2006 album "Curses" stands as a milestone, produced by the legendary Dave Grohl of Nirvana and Foo Fighters fame, and showcases the band's knack for combining gritty riffs with anthemic choruses. Preceding efforts include "Chariots On Fire" and "Jersey Girls," both replete with the group’s hard-hitting sound, while earlier albums like "On Top," "The Lipstick Game," and "Hee Saw Dhuh Kaet" captured the raw essence of Rye Coalition's inception and growth as a powerhouse in the punk and indie rock spheres. Despite dealing with industry setbacks and label troubles, Rye Coalition’s music remains a testament to their passion and tenacity in the rock genre.
