On Ride the Black Wave, The Donkeys continue their easy rolling, classic vibrations, but add a mystery and tension that make this record their most lyrically and instrumentally compelling. Recorded at San Diego's Singing Serpent and mixed by LA's Thom Monahan, it is with Ride the Black Wave that The Donkeys add their own stratum to California's ever expanding musical frontier. Ride The Black wave marks a new era and this release being their debut with new label, Easy Sound Recording Co.
