With a four-on-the-floor kick drum setting indie-rock undertones from the beginning of “Joy Rider,” producer Doug Lancio (Patty Griffin, John Hiatt), Tasjan, and a low-key A-list of musicians including Neilson Hubbard, Dan Mitchell, and Lex Price chug along under a cyclical piano melody invoking a cinematic, slow-motion image of the main character's front wheel spinning freely off of the pavement like no one and everyone are watching. 

Along the way, the team found it necessary to set up distribution for music that would be used in the film as well as for artists who were part of the niche scene of The Palomino Club and its legacy.
