The Rippingtons at The Fraze
Headlining the Festival of the Vine.
Fans that have followed Russ Freeman and The Rippingtons for any stretch of time over the past quarter century know the versatile award winning and Grammy nominated guitarist/composer, and producer has long had a penchant for naming songs and albums after exotic places (Aruba, Kenya, Morocco, Weekend in Monaco, Sahara, etc).
The titles of each hit Ripps album has often reflected Freeman’s deep wanderlust, whether he had actually been to the places he wrote about or was just dreaming of them in musical terms. These include Kilimanjaro, Tourist in Paradise,Welcome to the St. James Club, Weekend In Monaco, Live in L.A., Sahara, Brave New Worldand Live Across America. In 2016, the band celebrates three decades of instrumental magic at Fraze Pavilion.
