A self-described Appalachian storyteller, Ritch Henderson’s sound is best described as eclectic, taking cues from southern rock, country, and even folk. Even the artists that Ritch lists as influences, like Janis Joplin to the Turnpike Troubadours and Drive By Truckers, reflect the different aspects of his sound. A Marine veteran, one might be surprised to find Ritch now touring his way around the country, slinging songs as comfortably he is, but Ritch is no stranger to his music. With family influences growing up, it seems his road hasn’t been easy, but he draws from his own life struggles and triumphs for his forthcoming album, Fallacies and Four Letter Words, which will be out later this year. The new single, “Lithium,” which will be featured on the album, is out today.
