Ritt Momney at Irving Plaza

Ritt Momney was formerly an indie band but eventually it became a solo project of singer-songwriter Jack Rutter. The soloist dropped a cover of "Put Your Record On," in 2020 and went viral a few months later on the social media app Tik Tok. His iconic cover made waves on the Billboard Hot 100 months after it was released. The song peaked at number 30 on the chart and entered the charts in 21 other countries. Produced in the basement of his parents’ house during the pandemic, the song, originally performed by Corinne Bailey Rae, was referred to by Momney as “one of the greatest pop songs of all time.”

Momney has been releasing music since 2017 and has always stuck to his brand of easy-going indie pop tunes. His distinct voice has taken over the underground music world since the release of his debut single, “Young Adult,” in 2017. Two years later, Momney released his debut album, Her and All of My Friends, a critically-acclaimed effort featuring various genres. The album demonstrated catchy electro-pop tracks, jazz-leaning organ tunes, and ukulele numbers. This diverse sound is matched with Momney’s compelling lyrics describing his love, hope, faith, and struggles.

In 2021, Momney released his sophomore effort, Sunny Boy, which spawned notable tracks, “Not Around,” “Set the Table,” “Show Runner 99,” and many more. The album provides listeners with the same remarkable listening experience as its predecessor. Still, Momney maintains his eclectic music taste, providing fans with a cool sound trip.

This 2023, fans can look forward to Momney’s incredible live set as he covers his two-album catalog, including iconic covers such as “Put Your Records On.” For indie pop fans who have been keeping Momney inside their back pocket, it is time to share this incredible performer with many newfound fans, especially after the hashtag #rittmomney has been viewed over seven million times on TikTok. Gatekeeping this remarkable artist will not be so easy.
