Chasin’ Nothin‘

PUPPIES & RAINBOWS

It’s Just A Song

“Rise Unbroken” is my comeback song — not just another track, but my way of saying sorry to my fans. For a while, I let others shape my sound and pull me away from what was real. But Delta Dusk & Soul reminded me who I am — an outlaw country soul artist who writes from the heart, not from the crowd.

This song is me takin’ back my voice. Every line comes from the dirt, the wind, and the truth I nearly lost. No more chasing trends — just raw, honest music again.

This is my comeback.
This is my soul.
– Stephen Ryder

Rise Unbroken

Hard roads and heavy hearts

Little A, B, and C” is a song straight from the heart — a tribute to my three little girls who changed my world forever.
It’s about the moments that matter most — from tiny hands and first laughs to the lessons of love passed down through generations.

This song is for every parent who’s ever looked at their kids and realized they’re the reason for everything.

👧👧👶 Little A, B, and C — you are my world.
Thank you for giving my life purpose, laughter, and love beyond measure.

Little A, B, and C

Buck Ramble — When the Money Ain’t Never Over

Found in dusty reels marked “Goodnight Trail Sessions,” these are the long-lost recordings of Buck Ramble — the saloon singer turned silver-screen storyteller who lived long enough to see cowhands become celebrities.

Every track is a campfire sermon in rhythm: part truth, part tall tale.
He sings about lawmen, outlaws, faith, denial, women, whiskey, and the strange mercy of knowing too much.
By the time the record closes with the title track, Buck’s world has shifted from trail dust to camera lights — but the heart’s still out there under the same sky.
