Fresh from a 95-date world tour and album release with The Winery Dogs in 2023, Richie Kotzen returns with a brand new single and lyric video called "Cheap Shots" released today (May 1st). A gloriously powerful slice of guitar-driven and hard-riffin' heavy rock, with Kotzen's passionate vocals calling out haters and people who take advantage of others, it pulls no punches and delivers knockout hooks throughout.
"I really never know how, when or where inspiration will strike for a song idea," explains Kotzen. "I never try to force anything because I know ultimately at some point in time life will hand you a situation and for a guy like myself that is the perfect spark. I'm not someone that likes to outwardly go at it with someone if I feel I was wronged but I certainly use my creative outlet as a song writer to exercise that stuff out of me so I never find myself carrying around resentment or bad vibes.
