meet the founder

Ron Criscione is a Spokane area guitarist, vocalist, and songwriter who has been part of the Inland Northwest music scene since the late 1970s. From cozy wine bars to riverfront patios and private events, Ron has built a reputation for warm vocals, tasteful guitar work, and set lists that feel like the soundtrack to your favorite memories.

As the founding member and namesake of The Ronaldos, Ron is the constant at the heart of the project. Whether he’s performing solo, as a duo, or with additional players, any lineup built around Ron carries The Ronaldos name, sound, and feel good energy.

Drawing from more than 100 artists across five decades of music, Ron blends classics from the ’60s, ’70s, ’80s, and ’90s with modern favorites and a few of his own originals. His style is relaxed, upbeat, and always tuned to the room, perfect for wineries, restaurants, breweries, corporate events, and private parties in Spokane, Coeur d'Alene, Sandpoint, and beyond.

For Ron, music is a “first language” that connects people and creates a space where guests can unwind, talk, and truly enjoy the moment. Whether he’s playing solo or under The Ronaldos banner, Ron’s focus is simple: positive energy, great songs, and a welcoming atmosphere at every show.
