As the lead vocalist and songwriter for Ladyjack and The Hotel Diablo, Stitch has spent his career creating original music while sharing stages and studios with some of rock's most respected musicians.

Rick later returned to work with Gilby as the lead vocalist of Hotel Diablo, recording the band's album The Return to Psycho, California.
From 2009–2011, Stitch served as lead vocalist for Steven Adler's Adler's Appetite, writing, recording, and touring throughout North America, South America, and Europe.

The band would follow with two additional singles, Fading and Stardog, recorded with Fred Coury of Cinderella fame at his Los Angeles studio. As the European tour came to a close, Stitch joined Adler and the band on stage alongside Duff McKagan for a performance of classic Appetite for Destruction material at London's legendary Underworld.
Throughout his career, Stitch has collaborated with members of Guns N' Roses, MAGIC!, and Dirty Honey while continuing to evolve his sound across rock, Americana, and modern electronic music.
