Rick - was born in Montreal, Quebec, Canada. His musical influence was borne of growing up in a home filled with his fathers’ music. His father (now 73) was, and still is an accomplished musician that still performs today.

“Watching him play inspired me then to learn and inspires me today,

                                  to write and compose” 

Rick wrote a song dedicated to his father’s musical life called:

Song of my Father - William.

Some of his songs are inspired from current events.
