-Ready to Roll
Ray Carlisle-vocals/guitar // Kody Templeman-vocals/guitar
Miguel Chen-bass/vocals // Darren Chewka-drums/vocals
Teenage Bottlerocket have always been about the essentials: fast songs, fun shows, and friends who feel more like family. With their new album Ready to Roll, dropping this September on Pirates Press Records, they’re leaning harder than ever into the punk rock values that started it all—no gimmicks, no agenda, just straight-up energy, melody, and mayhem.
