Ricci takes his performing tasks seriously, performing both to keep your customers happy and staying in your place of business. He can keep it low background music or hit more up-tempo selections depending on the crowd, venue and evening.

Ricci also can perform as a duo or a trio adding upright bass and drums which can be perfect for small settings as well.
