Interview: Ryan Roxie – Recorded February 9, 2026
Ryan Roxie has been “in the trenches” of the rock and roll wars for four decades, playing alongside such legends as Alice Cooper and Slash from Guns N’ Roses. “Tampa” Earl had the chance to sit down to talk with Ryan about how Alice treats his “hired guns” like family, Ryan’s System-12 Guitar Method for teaching guitar, his “In The Trenches” podcast, and his latest song “Fight Another Day” which is out now.

Fight Another Day, the brand-new single and official video by Ryan Roxie, blending indie rock energy with a retro 8-bit video game aesthetic inspired by the classic arcade worlds. Released on Boxing Day, Fight Another Day is about resilience, appreciation for where you’ve come from, and finding the strength to keep going, one more level at a time.
The track features guest contributions from Keith Weir (The Quireboys) on piano and keyboards and Brijitte West (NY Loose) on background vocals. West is best known for the band’s 1990s hit “Spit,” featured on The Crow: City of Angels soundtrack.
