A Manhattan native with a guitar in hand since hearing The Beatles on Ed Sullivan, Ronnie went from behind-the-scenes session ace—playing for Irish legend Tommy Makem—to songwriter and solo artist hailed among power-pop connoisseurs. He’s also the father of indie baroque-pop sheriffs The Lemon Twigs. On Play On: A Raspberries Tribute, Ronnie brings melodic charm to “Cruisin’ Music,” layering sweet vocal harmonies over a timeless pop-rock groove.
