The Last Guitarist....yes that's me....

About Me

Not too good at speaking about myself, so here is what our publicist had to say about me..."The most multi-faceted person in the band is Rick. He would never admit to you how good he actually is, but watch him play for a moment and become completely engrossed within his style and within his brilliant emotion. Rick doesn't play guitar, he lives it… He breathes it. The aggression that Rick expresses in his music opens a window to listeners of his passion that extends throughout his everyday life. Rick is easily recognizable by his signature colorful braids, his dark wear and his metal bracelets which are never, ever removed. In the best way to describe Rick, one would say that he is extraordinarily dedicated to life, death, happiness, hope, his friends, his family, and his music. He sees a beautiful light in places the average person would never think to look."
NOTE to BANDS: While i appreciate lots of music and especially the dreams and desires of underground bands to spread the word to promote their music, the number of bands requesting me to add them has gotten far out of control, and given that i have a band of my own to help run, i simply do not have enough time to check out all the bands that send requests...so from now on, you must write me a message first at least before i will consider adding anymore bands...bands whom i know personally are the exception.
