The Lea Rider Group's original instruments were replaced rather quickly to the more typical guitar, bass guitar, drums, piano/keyboards and harmonica. Despite this change, the band still occasionally played the accordion as the unusual instrument was well-liked by Franzén. The band had a broad song catalog and mixed many different styles of music during its relatively short career. They became famous in Sweden and abroad, as a "raw, gritty and authentic blues and R&B group" in the style of similar blues-oriented British Invasion bands and American garage bands such as The Chocolate Watchband. The band's music also had psychedelic elements, pop influences and more melodic pieces.
