The Rides are an American blues supergroup, featuring guitarists Stephen Stills and Kenny Wayne Shepherd and keyboardist Barry Goldberg. The group formed in 2013 following a performance by the trio at a benefit led by Stills. Stills called the band “the blues band of my dreams”. The band toured in support of their debut album, Can't Get Enough, in fall 2013 backed by bassist Kevin McCormick (who played with Crosby, Stills and Nash in 2012) and Shepherd's longtime drummer Chris Layton. Their second album, Pierced Arrow, followed in 2016; it peaked at number one in the Billboard Top Blues Albums Chart.

Barry Goldberg died on January 22, 2025.
