Rick, aka "Riko Suave" is once again Slider's Lead Singer. 

Ricky was previously with the band from September 2001 through August 2003. 

Rick started singing in organized bands in 1988 with Lowdown. After 2 years, Rick was then asked to join Outta Touch. 

Rick stayed with Outta Touch for 10 years opening for such acts as Blackfoot, Molly Hatchet, Blue Oyster Cult, Steppenwolf, The Marshall Tucker Band, David Allen Coe, .38 Special, The Outlaws, and many more until October 2000 when Outta Touch decided to go their separate ways. 

Rick was then asked to join GVB in February 2001 to help out on Lead Vocals with Cheri Martin. With GVB, Rick played numerous shows in the area as well as the Eastern Shore. 

In late 2003 Rick left Slider and joined up with Smylin Jack and had almost a 4 Year run playing all over Virginia and Maryland.  Rick left Smylin Jack in January 2007 to take a break but he got the itch once again and now he’s back with Slider. 

Rick's great stage presence and vocal range enables the band to cover all material from Classic to Modern Rock.
