Richard Christy spent his childhood in Redfield, a city in Kansas, the son of a Vietnam veteran. At the age of 10, he started playing drums in his elementary school band Uniontown.

After graduation, Christy decided to move to Florida, hoping that he would meet the leader of the band Death, Chuck Schuldiner, and did so in the mid-1990s, soon auditioned and eventually became the new drummer of the band Death.
