"IF RAGS AND RICHES CONTINUE TO PUMP OUT MUSIC LIKE THIS, THEY WILL BE HEADLINING FESTIVALS IN NO TIME..." - THE GIRLS AT THE ROCK SHOW

Brothers, Tanner and Peyton Whitt, performing as the adrenalized alt-pop duo RAGS AND RICHES, aim to bring hope and inspire a generation of dreamers. Hailing from Lexington, Kentucky, these brothers aren't just making music—they're crafting anthems that ignite souls. From the moment they unleashed their debut single, "Speed of Sound” in 2019, the world took notice. With over 935K+ streams and 525K+ video views for "SOS," they set the stage for an explosive breakout unlike any other.

​

Picture this: 300+ shows in 44 states, directly supporting legends such as Smash Mouth, Judah & the Lion, Fitz & the Tantrums & Stop Light Observations all the way to the adrenaline rush of sharing stages with respected acts like Allen Stone & The Avett Brothers at Lovin' Life Music Festival. It's not just about the music; it's about connecting with audiences on a deeper level, leaving them energized and inspired. When the duo isn’t rocking stages—they're smashing records too. Winning a Josie Music Award for Pop Artist of the Year, 3 Lexington Music Awards for Pop Artist of the Year (2X Winner) & Song of the Year, clocking in over 7MIL+ career streams, and racking up 3MIL+ video views all in just 5 short years. They truly are a force to be reckoned with.

​

Their debut album, "Always Gold," dropped in June 2022 via SonaBlast! Records, and the response was nothing short of mind-blowing. With 1.4MIL+ streams in its first week, it's clear that their sound resonates with fans on a cosmic level. But perhaps the most thrilling chapter yet? The release of their 8-track EP, "I NEED A HOLIDAY," in December 2023. With 1.2 million streams in its debut week, it's a testament to their raw talent and infectious energy. "holiday.", the lead single from the EP, has become a fan favorite reaching over 1.1 million streams. And let's talk about their playlist prowess in 2023. Landing on Apple Music's coveted New In Alternative with “Hello, Goodbye”, snagging a spot on Spotify's Nu Disco playlist with "Flavor" and another Spotify powerhouse playlist, it's alt good with "holiday.", they continue to push boundaries and redefine the alt-pop landscape.

​

Tanner and Peyton aren't just brothers making music—they're dreamers, creators, and trailblazers. And as they continue to rise, one thing is certain: their journey is just beginning.
