Richard Arriaga: Lime Stone Flower Child,
Bard of Allah;
As an American bard, Richard spends an equal share of his time reading and writing as he does playing an instrument. Born June 17th, his inner Gemini makes for a pretty inconsistent spiritual compass. But we say he is pretty consistently a true talent and a beautiful soul!
Richard has been known to play at The Closets annual Veg Fest! Along with local joints such as "The Velvet Lounge" in East Setauket! Like many of us he has battled the social embargo put in place by COVID-19! But he has been battling in style by collaboration through the arts. Working with artists like Sharlyn Galarza on Limestone Flowerchild’s new North America ‘20 live album, playing ukulele on Meghan Pulles’ anthem, “Freedom”, and performing safely with Astronauto at Portside Bar & Grill. It’s hard to keep the bard at bay.
After the release of two singles, “Spring” and “Summer” and with Autumn on the way Richard is preparing to meet Winter as an old friend. His project dubbed ‘For the Seasons’ continues in phases. Follow him along the dusty road through the seasons:

Thank you for this. It’s been hard to feel like a productive human without a project to work at. Being able to share my story is a healthy reflection for me as well as anyone who is going through a similar experience. Stay safe everyone!
