Ricky Riccardo

Yes, that is his real name.  What can we say about Ricky?   Well, born and raised right here in Southern California, Ricky has been a standard fixture in the music scene.  After trying out numerous bassists, Shime finally settled on Ricky in the Spring of '96.

Ricky's fancy fingering style has made him a very in-demand player - so much so, that we rarely find him!  Tricky (as he is affectionately known, for his onstage antics) has been pulling double duty these days, touring the world with our good friend, Tony MacAlpine.  Look for them on tour in a town near you.
