The best day of the week?

Enjoying some Sammy's Beach Bar Cocktail, the afternoon before the show in West Palm Beach on my favorite beach. Thanks to Sammy Hagar and Sammy's Beach Bar Rum for posting this photo on their Instagram page. And especially big thanks to The Red Rocker for the nice compliment he wrote about me in his post.

My old friend, Pro Tools; it's on!

Moving deeper into the production, tracking mode again for the new projects. It's truly a labor I love.

The Best Of All Worlds Tour starts in West Palm Beach this Saturday, July 13 and continues to Tampa on Sunday, July 14! Thanks to Sammy Hagar for the passes to both shows. The show features, Michael Anthony, Jason Bonham and Joe Satriani. I hope to see my Van Hagar Redhead friends there and of course it's sponsored by Sammy's Beach Bar Rum. Here are just a few highlights from the amazing experiences I've had with these guys over the years. I'm thankful to call them, my friends.

Who is going to see The Best Of All Worlds Tour with Sammy Hagar (The Red Rocker), Mad Anthony Bassman Michael Anthony, Jason Bonham, Joe Satriani, and Rai Thistlewayte (keys, backing vox) with Loverboy opening the show, this Saturday July 13 in West Palm Beach or Sunday July 14 in Tampa?
Sponsored by Sammy's Beach Bar Rum? I am excited to hear Joe's guitar tone and his version of the Van Halen songs. Also, I hear they are playing some songs we have not heard them play in many years! Hope to see you all there!
Thanks to my friend Sammy for the passes!

Loved visiting and performing in Japan at the America Day Festival just outside Us Misawa Airbase, June 23, 2024! A most unique country and the people were very kind, impressive, and responsive to the music. But best of all is our US Military service members and meeting many of them who are protecting all of us, everyday. What a blessing and I was able to rock out especially at the end of the show!

Rehearsal done, fly rig ready! Japan here we come!

Favorite Friday Song?

Glory days at my Uncle Bill & Aunt Helen's house in Trumbull CT a couple years ago! 🤣😜😠

Playing fun gigs this weekend. Motown & Lady Gaga tribute shows. Love great songwriting, Gtr, production, no matter style.

On the road again! Traveled from Orlando to Rehoboth Beach Delaware in a straight shot. Slept a few hours, played two shows 3 PM and 8 PM, loaded up and drove straight back to Orlando! That's rock 'n' roll and I like it! And you gotta love Pedro and his signs. I remember these from when I was a little kid, so exciting to see those signs traveling from the great white CT north to beautiful Florida and back.

Time to get started on the guitar, piano, drums, voice, violin, etc., this summer! If you are a beginner-intermediate-advanced player, we can help you improve and reach your goals! Call us today at 407 619-3773!

I must salute one of my favorite guitarists, Dickey Betts of the Allman Brothers Band. He and ABB are a huge influence of mine and millions of other musicians. His phrasing, tone, style, improvisational skills, and songwriting are top shelf. Songs like Blue Sky, Jessica, Ramblin Man, In Memory Of Elizabeth Reed, Whippin Post, Melissa, and so many others. Rest In Peace Mr Betts, Thank You for all the great music and the shows I was lucky enough to attend.

My morning getting focused and prepared.

Rehearsal done with this talented and fun happy crew, the way it's supposed to be! This weekend in Naples, FL we headline a private event with Tito Puente Jr joining us in the second half of the show!

Blessings to All on Easter! Buona Pasqua! ¡Felices Pascuas!

Hi Friends, can you go to our Rico Monaco Band page and post a Review please?

2001! The CD that really put us on the map! Rico Monaco & Sol Sons self-titled release was the result of years of hard work and everyone involved added so much that I can't thank them enough. You can hear it on all music platforms. It still holds up and I still play some of the songs from it. We won many awards such as CD of the Year, Song of the Year, Band of the Year, Musician of the Year, and of course the national battle of the bands Hard Rock Cafe/Cabo Wabo Tequila victory was helped by the quality of this release. Very proud of this production and thank for all the support from all the listeners.
