Interview: Taylor Roberts of Riding With Killers – Recorded September 10, 2024
Rock At Night had the pleasure of seeing Detroit-based band Riding With Killers (RWK) perform at the recent Arts Beats & Eats Festival in Royal Oak, Michigan. The band is sensational live, and the album Full Circle is a must-hear for fans of alternative rock bands like Sleep Theory and Boston Manor. Riding With Killers is comprised of Taylor Roberts (guitar/vocals), Jed Thibeault (drums), and Kris Kress (bass), although at the festival, bassist James Lascu (ex-Wilson) filled in for Kress. When Roberts isn’t writing music with the band, he is the guitarist in the Ann Arbor band Taproot.
Rock At Night aired Part 1 of our fascinating interview with Taylor. Now, check out Part 2.
In this interview, Taylor Roberts discusses his recording experience in Sweden with renowned sound engineer Jakob Hermann of Top Floor Studios, record labels vs. independent recordings, the Blue Ridge Festival, Mississippi Delta blues artists, a spooky encounter, and more.

Rock At Night’s theme song is “Get On Down If You Feel Up To It” by Billy “Bass” Alford
I grew up in a household full of rock music, studied journalism in college, and then became a scientist.Although my science career has served me well, music has always played a major role in my life. I grew up reading "Creem" magazine; I play several musical instruments as a "hobby";and it seems a camera has always been in my hand. Now, I am combining what I love the most--music and photography--serving as editor of Rock At Night. I travel between the US and UK seeking my dream! My motto: life is short...no regrets. Chyrisse
