Tiki Pasillas
At eight years old, Ricardo's mother arranged piano lessons for him. Shortly thereafter, he took guitar lessons. He played drums in his Junior High School marching band and at age seventeen, he won a Berkee Music Scholarship to attend a summer session at the Berklee Music School. A year after graduating from high school, Ricardo moved to Southern California. He has appeared on a Mexican television program, called "Siempre en Domingo", and was part of the house band for the short lived talk show "Cafe Ole". He has also played at the "Calle Ocho Festival" in Little Havana with Candi Sosa's band.
