Here be the ska. If anyone is down to record some vox to this, let me know!

Wrong Side of Town

This is the first studio release of Son of Ra from Santa Fe, NM. Crank it up and enjoy the tunes!

The Devil Is In Disguise

This is a studio project featuring Steven Montoya Jr. on the clean vocals, Michael Petry on drums, and Chris Riggins on guitar, bass, and vocals. This song was written and with the exception of Steven recording his own vocals in his home studio is Colorado, everything was recorded, mixed, and mastered by Chris Riggins. I hope you enjoy!

Hymn Of The Wicked

This song was originally written with Justin Pucila on a camping trip. As we were hanging out midday, I noticed that there was a bird in the distance singing the same 3 notes over and over again, so I picked up my guitar and started playing along. The first 3 notes of the song was the birds call. I tried to form a response around that and keep that as our motif. We ended up writing the song together after I was messing around with it for a bit, and this was this is the result of that adventure. I hope you enjoy it!

Song in the Key of Bird E

Disconnect

Recorded, mixed, and mastered by Chris Riggins. 2023.
We stand and fight

Terrified of what we have become
Receding deeper into our minds
Must we live only how we are told
From here until the end of time

We’ll stand and fight
We’ll stand and fight for what is right 
We will not run
We will not run away this time

Feel the fire burning deep
Slowly charring what little we have
Are we just meant to stay asleep 
Only knowing of what we once had

We’ll stand and fight
We’ll stand and fight for what is right
We will not run
We will not run away this time

And then the shots ring out
And the people shout 
And then the riots start
And the troops will march 

The bullets paint the sky
Like falling stars so high
What are we waiting for
Another false idol? Not this time

Bullets Paint the Sky

Baile De Fuego

Cascades

This is a song that I wrote after hearing the news of my dad passing away. He was very inspirational to me and extremely supportive of me through the years. I am not very good with speaking emotions but I feel that this short tune captures at least 1/10 of what is going on in my mind right now..
