The Ries Brothers, the St. Petersburg, Florida duo known for their genre-blending prowess, have unleashed their latest single ‘Coming Out Swinging,’ a track that swings for the fences and connects with a resounding crack.
‘Coming Out Swinging’ is a rollicking blend of rock, blues, and funk, co-written with 311’s Nick Hexum and produced by Phil Joly. The song starts with a rolling blues guitar riff courtesy of Kevin Jordan Ries, before blooming into a groove-heavy anthem anchored by Charlie Ries’ commanding vocals and drum work. It’s a declarative statement of intent—equal parts catchy and confident—that showcases the brothers’ sharpened songwriting chops. The accompanying lyric video amplifies its energy, making it a must-stream for fans old and new.
Speaking on the new song, the band says:
“‘Coming Out Swinging’ is a very special track to us for many reasons. It is the first song we ever showed to Nick Hexum at the beginning of our writing partnership. We had been stuck on the chorus and where to go with it, we knew we liked “Coming Out Swinging” as a lyric and as an idea since we are both lifelong baseball fans and still play whenever we get the chance. Finally being able to tie our loves of baseball and music together in one track was very cool. After taking a listen, Nick sent back the updated chorus, and boom the song was born. He has an amazing talent for taking a look at a song and then knowing exactly what it needs.”
‘Coming Out Swinging’ is out now.
