Douchebags & Divas

Ricky Montijo

Electronic dance influenced rock and a scathing rebuke of today's "love and leave" culture. Everyone knows the type of person--they don't care about anyone else but themselves. They're god's gift to others. They lie, cheat, and damage because they're Douchebags and Divas. Blending elements of rock, EDM, soul, and hip hop for an entirely unique and

Electronic dance influenced rock and a scathing rebuke of today's "love and leave" culture. Everyone knows the type of person--they don't care about anyone else but themselves. They're god's gift to others. They lie, cheat, and damage because they're Douchebags and Divas. Blending elements of rock, EDM, soul, and hip hop for an entirely unique and driving sound, Ricky Montijo releases his first single of 2020. He crafts a strong message of overcoming the ones that hurt you by calling them what they are. As a singer-songwriter, multi-instrumentalist and producer, Ricky Montijo performed and recorded all instruments including drums, bass, guitars, keys, synths, and percussion in various places across California.

With Flavors of Soul, Pop, Latin, and Reggae steeped in a solid Rock base with blistering guitars solos and soulful Vocals, the self tiled Ep is a great representation of who i am. I played every instrument on the entire album, with the exception of the main drum track which I proudly credit to my man, Conner Martin. You'll catch some signature Ricky guitar licks and percussion, but I'm introducing you to deeper textures of reggae and pop, and highlighting my exploration into electronic music. Since releasing The Sauce Pot Sessions, I spent 2 years touring the U.S., got engaged to my wife, and overcame behaviors and vices that fueled a lot of the inspiration for songs on my prior album. With all that time on the road, I had the mental space to think about who I am (and want to be!) as a person and as an artist. I realized I can't be categorized and that, my friends, is my niche. With this freedom, my heart opened up and I've written two more albums worth of music in addition to this one and I'm writing daily!

This album was recorded live with the band in the studio at the Sauce Pot Studios in San Luis Obispo, CA. It captures the raw, live feel of full band performances. The recording of the entire album was completed within 4 hours in the studio which is a major accomplishment. The album showcases Ricky's vocals which are completely unedited. It is rare that an artist can confidently present even a single song with unedited tracks at this level, let alone 8 songs. The album features Ricky on vocals and guitar, Theodore Pedro Ramirez "Teddy" on drums, Endang Rukandi on percussion, and Joe Duran on bass. The Sauce Pot Sessions was released under Ricky Montijo & The Mojitos (an early band name that originated from the comedy behind the many attempts by fans to pronounce Ricky's last name). These recordings demonstrate the raw power in Ricky's diversity in Soul, Rock, Latin, and Blues.
