Rick started playing at tender young age of 13. He grew up in a musical family and always had different instruments laying around the house. He has always been into metal, but in recent years has been getting heavily into blues.

Rick can play guitar, bass, drums, piano, trumpet, & saxophone.

His first band was Bad Influence. Other bands he's been in over the years include: Three Legged Dog, Stump & Super Fly.

Most of Rick's hobbies are centered around music; Writing, recording, performing. It's more like a need or a jones than a hobby though;  "I just really LOVE musical sounds and putting songs together from sounds I hear in my head."

Aside from music Rick is pretty busy having a four year old son that he loves spending time with.
