Arthur Mountaniol has been honored with eight ASCAP Awards from the American Society of Composers, Authors and Publishers from 2004 to 2011.
In 2016, Arthur Mountaniol's application for a membership in The Recording Academy Grammy Awards was denied because of an insufficient evidence of being a music artist.
In 2005, Arthur Mountaniol was nominated for Best Guitar Player by the Los Angeles music newspaper Rock City News.
After Arthur Mountaniol had performed a series of live shows as a one-man band in Los Angeles in 2001, Music Connection Magazine's editor Bernard Baur wrote: "Arthur Mountaniol is either a Martian or a mad maestro. An enigma who will confound critics, this artist is a bona fide original".
