Members of RTB have worked with the likes of The Band, Little Feat, Bill Monroe, Pete Seeger and Arlo Guthrie. Together they have opened for and shared bills with The Jerry Garcia Band, Los Lobos, The Funky Meters, Leftover Salmon, String Cheese Incident and Max Creek. They were even asked to back up legendary blues man, Johnny Johnson for a few shows on his 1999 tour. RTB's large original repertoire feature funky, bass oriented rhythms and foot stomping percussion. Bouncy guitar lines pull the whole groove together and create an entrancing state that makes ones body want to move.
Soulful melodies are immediately memorable.
Even the bands cover tunes have a distinctly 'Torricized' feel and include B-side tunes from The Grateful Dead, The Allman Brothers and others. All are excellent examples of their dedication and meticulous approach to the quality of their music. On stage the band's energy is intense. These boys are not afraid to break a sweat and rarely have a problem getting the crowd on their feet. One club owner called them the hardest working band he'd ever met.
