Hello my friends, I do appreciate your interest...My given first name is Rick, but for the majority of my life, (as an entertainer, singer/songwriter), I have been known as Rick A. Shay - (rickashay)...
For better than three decades, (besides the multiple trades of indevoire I have experienced), I have been touched by the music god. For those of you also touched, you know there is generally no turning back...
The number of groups I have been associated with is not that important. However, I am obliged to mention a few.
Some of the obvious projects are represented on my music player. A SHADE OF GRAY has been and is currently the only gig that I'm working' on at this time. This is an original two man project with my long time friend and brother Greg Slater,(guitar), and myself.
TORN and KILLIN' TIME are acoustic projects that are not currently active but could always be revisited...
WHITE HORSE, (which many of you may be already be acquainted with), was my last - live Classic Rock Cover Band that I fronted.
MEDALYON was an all original Metal band that I had invested the most time in during the 80's and 90's. Signed to Indie labels such as, Fortunate Records and Long Island Records, we had accomplished some popularity, air-play and sales around the world. But unable to convince the Corporate Machine of our potential - MEDALYON fades away...
To present day...I am now 50 years old. I am no longer the spandex wearing, long haired leaping gnome - I once was. That being said - I'm not dead yet...
So if you like, please stay tuned...I will promise to remain interested in you as well...
In closing...For the Great Spirit and our own sake, let us all strive for peace...rickashay
