Denver's Last of the Easy Riders Releasing Vinyl LP On UK's Agitated Records

By: Hannah Oreskovich

Denver’s Last of the Easy Riders are one local act making a lot of noise at home and over in the UK. Comprised of Mitch Mitchem (drums/percussion/vocals), Bradley “Blue Moon” Grear (guitar), Big Byrd Minarik (guitar/backing vocals), and Dan “Rain Child” Duggan, this crew formed about a year ago with a shared vision: to create cosmic rock’n’roll.

Though based in Colorado, the “high country folk rock and Southwestern psych” outfit are putting out a sweet, orange-swirl limited edition 12” on UK’s Agitated Records this month. The release is the band’s debut LP: a self-titled, six-song record that dropped digitally back in February of this year. The vinyl will be released November 18th, and you’ll be able to purchase it for yourself here. It’s the sort of album you’d find yourself listening to on the open road while you’re cruising to Joshua Tree headed "find yourself" in the desert: psych-heavy with killer strings, drippy vocals, and thumpin’ rock beats.

Check out Last of the Easy Riders’ self-titled LP:

Locally, Last of the Easy Riders have a couple of live performances on the horizon: they play with MAMA The Rubs Slynger at Mile High Spirits this Saturday, November 3rd and at the Hi-Dive on November 20th for the Third Annual Mile Hi Gram Jam.

Make sure to check out this crew before they head over to the UK, and don’t forget to snag their sweet vinyl on November 18th!
