Rick is the lead singer with big range and many voices, he can do just about anything and anybody, including Elvis, Donald Duck, or Pavaratti if necessary. He cut his teeth in praise bands in some local churches, and has toured with Job's Turn, guested with others. Rick's life philosophy is 'to Live, to Love, to Learn, to Laugh, and to Leave a Legacy'. He works on the legacy part every day by being founder and CEO of Fractional Assets, a plane and boat fractional ownership company.
David Keenum
"SNACKTIME"
Keyboards & Vocals
David began playing trombone in the 5th grade. In the 9th grade he heard Procol Harum's Whiter Shade of Pale and that changed everything. From then on he wanted to be a keyboard player as well. He has spent his career in music education, receiving a Masters from Auburn University. At the same time he played keyboards in a number of groups. He also owned and operated a studio for about 10 years. Engineering, programming, producing and playing on a number of CD projects. A few years ago he closed his studio to concentrate on his own music. Since then he has had a number of commercial projects. The oddest and most interesting was composing and recording theme music for a "Bones Exhibit" at the Indianapolis Children's Museum.
David Christoff
"MAILMAN"
Bass Guitar
David started playing guitar in a band at the age of 15. He then switched to bass because "the other guitar player in the band was better" than him. After 14 years playing with the band, he had to make a decision to do music full time or get a "real" job. The "real job" won, and he did 30 years with the Post Office as a "Mailman." So now he's back to one of his first loves -- playing the blues. One last thing, he's from upstate New York, and his biggest thrill is that at the age of 20 he attended and spent three days at the original "Woodstock"
