Videos by American Songwriter

Hurray for the Riff Raff performed their hypnotic single “The Body Electric” from Small Town Heroes last night on the Late Show with David Letterman.

“What’s a man with a rifle in his hand gonna do for world that’s gone mad?/ He’s gonna shoot me down, put my body in the river,” sings Alynda Lee Segarra,  turning the traditional murder ballad on its head.

The celebrated Americana band’s latest album Small Town Heroes is available on iTunes. Read our recent cover story on the band below.
