Michael Ricciardi: Pink Hair, Everything, Mixed Feelings, & New Beginnings

What once was is no more. Musician, poet, in-the-feels guy from Austin, Texas. Also has pink hair. Self described as an “alternative indie hip-pop”. Michael also brings you along through his side project Heartbound, a post-hardcore/post-punk produced entirely by himself. He is also co-owner of Cigs & Black Coffee and a producer/engineer. He's an entire package, ironic because he also had a beautiful son (check out his instagram). Through his distinctive fusion of thoughtful lyrics and avant-garde sound design, Ricciardi has made a name for himself in the music business. Through his perceptive narratives and provocative poetry, Ricciardi allows his listeners to explore the depths of his viewpoints and experiences. His music creates a rich, sophisticated, and multifaceted soundscape by deftly fusing Hip Hop with electronic, jazz, and rock components. His work serves as a reminder of the life-changing potential of music and a monument to the strength of artistic expression. This interview is nothing different. We are speaking about his public and private life, new music and upcoming work, collaborations, memories, and all wrapped, sealed, and delivered! Including music news from Heartbound. Plus, forgot to mention, he has a podcast called The Sceneish Podcast. Whenever you get time, be sure to check out all his other projects and stay tuned.
