Born in County Down, Northern Ireland, a teenage Ricky relocated to Scotland and got his first taste of rock & roll when he was asked to join UK punk / folk band New Model Army as an additional guitarist. After leaving New Model Army the young guitarist went on to found The Almighty in Glasgow, enjoying ten Top 40 singles and four Top 20 albums in the UK and sharing the stage with such iconic bands as Iron Maiden and Metallica. In 2002 Ricky brazenly embarked on an acoustic solo career and recorded his first release, ‘Tattoos & Alibis’. Recorded in Dublin, Ricky collaborated with Peter O’Toole of Hothouse Flowers and Scott Gorham of Thin Lizzy fame, a meeting that would have great ramifications for Ricky’s future. In 2010, Ricky was approached by the management for Ireland’s favourite sons, Thin Lizzy. Scott Gorham was spearheading a reformation of Thin Lizzy and was asking if Ricky was interested in fronting the new line up. From the first show it was clear to everyone that something magical was happening here. These classic tracks had new life breathed into them and Ricky’s voice added the requisite blue collar feel that makes them come to life. In late 2012, with more than 150 Thin Lizzy shows under their belts, the guys decided that what was needed was a new album to continue the Thin Lizzy legacy. Veteran producer Kevin Shirley was brought on board to handle production but at the eleventh hour Scott Gorham voiced reservations about using the Thin Lizzy name. Everyone agreed to release the material under a new name – Black Star Riders. Their much acclaimed debut, ‘All Hell Breaks Loose’, was released in April 2013 followed in 2015 by the quintet’s second album, ‘The Killer Instinct’. Debuting at #13 in the UK national Charts, the singles ‘The Killer Instinct’ and ‘Finest Hour’ have made major impacts in radio in the UK and Europe. Ricky has always been a driven performer and whilst Black Star Riders are his main priority he also found time to mine his creative soul and create two new solo records. Ricky explains, “While we were working on the new BSR album, the songs just kept coming and coming.” Ricky writes songs in a number of styles and many of these tracks would not be at home on a Black Star Riders album, so he decided to record and release these albums as solo projects. The results are the more hard rock centred ‘When Patsy Cline Was Crazy (And Guy Mitchell Sang The Blues)’ and the beautiful acoustic album ‘Hearts On Trees’. Both albums were written by Ricky and his good friend Sam Robinson and depict their experiences of growing up in the Greater East Belfast area. Both albums translate those experiences to a global scale that anyone can relate to. The release also boasts an array of acclaimed musicians with guests such as Joe Elliot (Def Leppard), Damon Johnson (Thin Lizzy / Black Star Riders), Andy Cairns(Therapy?), Billy Morrison (Billy Idol), Nathan Connolly (Snow Patrol), Ginger Wildheart, Jake Burns (Stiff Little Fingers) and Richard Fortus (Guns N’ Roses / Dead Daisies). Double LP packaged in a gatefold sleeve. All formats feature bonus tracks.
