“I think there’s a lot of variety on my records. This is no different,” Broadbent says. “I’m really getting a sense now that this idea of genre and where you fit in is not as important as it used to be — which I think is good.” – Broadbent
His new album RIDE is a rock record highlighting Broadbent’s natural grit, voice and guitar, riding atop every song with a driving force. There is a great deal of stylistic diversity from the title track, which he calls “a tale of adventure”, to the blues roots of “New Orleans”, a love letter to one of his favorite cities. While “I Love Your Rock ‘n’ Roll”, is “an homage to the bands that I like.” Even though there are several twists, the album takes the listener on a trip, strung together by a Broadbent’s vision.
