Award-winning blues-rock guitar ace with a tour-de-force album of memorable, hookfilled songs, sung with soul-deep fervor and fueled by Coco’s blistering fretwork. His five Alligator releases have scanned nearly 120,000 units combined.
A hard-touring artist for over three decades now, Coco has played thousands of dates all over the world. Still performing over 100 times a year, his shows in support of the new release begin in the U.S. in September and run into 2024.

Writing On The Wall is a career-defining album bursting with Montoya’s fierce guitar and passion-laden vocals, and the first to feature his long-time road band. Thirteen tracks of searing blues, soulful R&B and high-energy rock & roll include ten originals, five co-written by Coco, and include guest appearances by Lee Roy Parnell and Ronnie Baker Brooks. Co-produced by Grammy Award-winner Tony Braunagel (Bonnie Raitt, Taj Mahal) and Jeff Paris (Keb’ Mo’, Bill Withers).
