The Muddy Ruckus
Muddy Ruckus is a rock duo of darkly inventive americana according to the New York Music Daily. Guitarist Ryan Flaherty and drummer Erika Stahl of Portland, Maine play a grungy style of railroad indie punk blues. This stripped-down power-duo blends rootsy guitar and edgy percussion on a suitcase drum kit, and is known for a full rock band sound. 2019 :: From The Floor By Muddy Ruckus Releases Oct 18, 2019.

The song was recorded in their home studio in Maine. It begins with a haunting whistle to hook you in, followed by a jangly guitar and profound lyrics like and I believe ill forget all about you, its the best thing I can do - for my anger it wont bring me nothing but those foolish brimstone blues. Transitioning between alternative rock and folk fusion, the duo keeps a foot in each door by featuring several of their influences in just one song. "The band is reigning in the ruckus and revealing a bit of their softness with their new single Brimstone, featuring bassist Mark Abraham from Enter The Haggis. Haunting whistles and warm, soulful harmonies lure you inall the while building up into a powerful, rootsy, instant rock classic youll want to play again and again. Listen and hear their unique blend of seasoning, spices, and textures from a road well traveled helping you to ease your mind and go wherever the music takes you." - Rad Plaid
2018 :: Bellows To Mend June 1st, 2018, Muddy Ruckus released their third album Bellows To Mend - amping things up to be their loudest and most raucous album, unleashing more gritty garage blues and grunge influences along with a tribute cover to Woody Guthrie.

Shortly before the album released, Muddy Ruckus was awarded Rock n' Roller's of the Year by Redline Roots. "Bellows to Mend captures the manic passion of Muddy Ruckus live performances while demonstrating how much depth just two musicians can pull from the studio. With much love to their previous efforts, this is hands down their best work so far." - Evolvement Radio, album reviews.

Pretty Bones was a fiery follow up to their roots-driven self-titled debut from 2014, adding an even more raucous flair to their brand of folk-laden duo-stomp rock. "It's rare that a band releases a burner for their sophomore album, the kind you listen to the entire way through and then hit repeat. Yet Muddy Ruckus do just that with Pretty Bones" - Glide Magazine 2014 :: Muddy Ruckus On October 30, 2014, Muddy Ruckus released their debut album. Stahl was only singing at the time and Flaherty was still playing many shows solo with just guitar and his suitcase kick, which later became the featured instrument in Erika's set up. With the help of Stahl, Flaherty put together a band to go on tour with and record the songs that appear on their debut. "It was really more of a demo" explains Flaherty. "It's an obscure album for us, when Muddy Ruckus was still in the womb, trying to find a home. I was jamming and playing with a lot of bluegrass and jazz players at the time, so those elements are definitely heard throughout the songs, which was a cool contrast to my usual rock and folk roots. Our music has traveled in many different directions since then, wearing different faces. We have many different influences and they're all part of our expression and method. Muddy Ruckus isn't just our name - it's the kind of music we play".
