Richard P. Luciano,
lead and slide guitar, vocals and songwriter was raised in the northwest corner of
Montana near the Canadian border. Learning to play as a teenager and studying for
years to perfect his trademark style, Richard graduated from the Guitar Institute
of Technology in 1987. Playing in bands in L.A. and the western United States gave
him time and experience to hone a distinctive sound all his own. A walking
historian on the culture of Native peoples around the area he lives, Richard found
writing songs to be the creative outlet needed to express his feelings about the
land he grew up on which is rich in indigenous history. Along with being writer
and co-producer on NDN's "Warrior's Pride", Richard plays with the group "Parallel
49". |
