The Riddims is a High Desert Reggae band from Albuquerque, New Mexico. Our music is inspired by Roots Reggae, Hip-Hop, Rock, and our native New Mexican music. These inspirations formed the genre "High Desert Reggae" which is gaining popularity in the Southwestern US. The Riddims consists of 6 members; Myles Chavez, Chris Cruz, Donavon Ortiz, Rick Gonzalez, Tony Gallegos, Kevin Sanchez, and Tony Rinaldi. We have been honored to share the stage with many bands including: New Kingston, Hirie, Seedless, E.N. Young, Through the Roots, Arise Roots, Iya Terra, The Supervillains, Brewfish, Fayuca, Black Bottom Lighters, as well as Reggae legends Sly Dunbar, Robbie Shakespeare and more! We released our second EP titled "Grounded" in April 2019. It is available on iTunes, Spotify, and all digital outlets.
