The Rick Ray Band - The Gremlins Are Listening (2023)

"The Gremlins Are Listening" is the 37th studio album by American rock musician and guitarist Rick Ray. Recorded with his group, The Rick Ray Band, it was released on August 15, 2023, via his own independent label, Neurosis Records.

Critics from specialized publications (including *Blues Blast Magazine*) have noted that the music combines heavy guitar-driven rock with unconventional arrangements reminiscent of Frank Zappa, atmospheric passages in the style of Pink Floyd, and the bluesy inflections of Peter Green. Ray’s raspy, theatrical vocal delivery evokes the styles of Alice Cooper and David Bowie.
