Legendary shoegaze band Ride are playing a series of reunion shows this year, including both weekends of Coachella. However, as the band works up to playing on tour, the band’s Andy Bell and Mark Gardener played a recent acoustic show in London, which included several hits from their catalog, including a pretty sizable chunk of their iconic debut album, Nowhere. It was their first show together in two decades.
