RAGS AND RICHES are an adrenalized, American pop-rock band hailing from Lexington, Kentucky. Formed in 2017, the band features brothers Tanner & Peyton Whitt. Over the last four years, the band has discovered their unique sound, identity and aesthetic. 

Through their organic, kaleidoscope of creative abilities the brothers hope to be a light to guide people for owning what it is to be human - to grab life by the horns and live to the fullest, embracing all the twists and turns on the rollercoaster of it all. They share, "Our music is written to inspire others and spark hope for everyone to leave their legacy with the time they are given. No matter what is weighing on you in the present, or if you feel surrounded by your stress and anxiety, let that be a part of who you are and use that as motivation. This world is yours for the taking".

RAGS AND RICHES have impressively clocked close to three million Spotify streams and had numerous TV appearances on shows such as Morning Show, Everyday Kentucky and Good Day Kentucky.

Their debut album ALWAYS GOLD features ten tracks all covering a multitude of emotions and feelings that we experience in life. Touching on themes ranging from time, stress, money, happiness, anger and faith, the album is an honest and true reflection of everyday life. A colorful connection of sounds and styles, the band take inspiration from the likes of Imagine Dragons, Twenty One Pilots and Kanye West. Bursting with life and full of attitude, the album is fast-paced and energetic, as thundering percussion, animated guitars, throbbing basslines and quirky synths provide the foundations to this deliciously extravagant release. 

The adrenalized tracks will give you an insanely powerful energy to start your days on. They have true talent in songwriting as well, I especially love the lyrics of "Always Gold", the song that gives the title to the album: "And you think to yourself, Did I take the wrong road? Should I go back? Just remember, there’s always fools gold". 

About the album, they share, "Since these songs were mostly written in the beginning phases of RAGS AND RICHES, we were focused on what life looks like as a band and a future in the music industry. That is how a lot of these topics popped up".

"Always Gold"

There may be shadows, Darkness at moonlight

Midnight begins, though dawns not far

The strong but quiet, anticipation

Life at the crossroads

Isn’t all that easy, easy, easy

Everything shining ain’t always gold

The future’s elusive, the past made bold

Daydreams and visions and more untold

Everything shining ain’t always

Gold, gold, gold, gold

Ages and ages, when you look back

And you think to yourself, “Did I take the wrong road? Should I go back?”

Just remember, there’s always fools gold

The path you chose is the only one you’ll ever know
