Ricked Wicky

Among the many music projects in the remarkably prolific Robert Pollard, Ricked Wicky was Pollard’s initial new music electric outlet after Guided by Voices split up (for the next period) in Sept 2014. Pollard announced he previously taken the plug on the GbV tour times before it had been set to begin with, telling the brand new York Situations, “It’s gone so far as it was likely to go also to go beyond this aspect, to any level or any duration would be simply going right through the movements.” Pollard also talked about he would end up being releasing an record under a fresh group rubric, Ricked Wicky, a music group name he coined when he is at his early teenagers. Probably with tongue in cheek, Pollard defined Ricked Wicky being a “advanced arena rock-band,” and “Flexibility,” the initial track released in the band’s debut record I Sell the Circus, certainly shown Pollard’s affects in hard rock and roll, muscular pop, and intensifying rock. Featuring creation from Pollard’s longtime collaborator Todd Tobias and instrumental function from Nick Mitchell, I Sell the Circus premiered by Fire Information in Feb 2015.
