BIO: The Plow is the latest group pushing through the Christian Hip-Hop ministry. Consisting of a bass player, guitar player, a drummer, and two vocalist, the group combines a plethera of musical styles to form one complete sound of praise, worship and lyrical preaching.
Rudy D. and Ricky D., two brothers who have experienced the highs and lows of the music industry, could ignore the call of the Lord no more. For many years the two brothers put the notion of writing music for God to the side. Rudy and Ricky finally invited the Lord into their music and began using their lyrical skills and songwriting talents to serve and follow Christ.
Martin Montoya, a drummer and a school friend of Ricky D., also had aspirations of making Christian Hip-Hop music. After many years of wanting to work together, Martin and Ricky finally joined together along with guitar player Isaac Garcia, and bass player Elias "Ace" Valdez who Ricky knew of through their church youth group.
The Plow helps plant a new seed in the world by providing an alternative to the materialistic world of Hip-Hop. The Plow, like the scripture Luke 9:62, means doing God's work and never looking back. Something The Plow does not intend to do.
