简介
Rick is probably best known as a founding member of "A Ragamuffin Band" formed by the late Rich Mullins in the early '90's. Rick performed with Rich until his untimely death in September 1997. At that time - at the request of Rich's family, estate, and record label - Rick resumed the production of Rich's posthumous release "The Jesus Record". The Jesus Record went on to win 2 Dove Awards, and had two # 1 songs, "My Deliverer" (sung by Rick) and "Nothing Is Beyond You" (sung by Amy Grant). The Rags released one more album, "Prayers Of A Ragamuffin" in 1999, produced by Rick. it included his song "Make Me An Instrument" -- a musical rendering of St. Francis' Prayer and St. Patrick's Breastplate - which resulted in The Rags being invited to perform before the Pope and 2.4 million people in Rome, Italy for World Youth Day in August, 2000. Rick was also given the production reins for the official album for WYD, "One", which included him being able to produce one of his musical heroes, Aaron Neville, as well as many others who contributed generously to the project. Also, during this time ('95-'03,) Rick co-produced, wrote, and performed 5 songs for the Tom Hanks film "That Thing You Do!". His music is also featured in "My Big Fat Greek Wedding", and a number of independent films, television shows, and ads worldwide. He is currently an adjunct instructor at the Contemporary Music Center in Brentwood TN. As well as teaching songwriting and production, Rick frequently gives songwriting seminars in person and online. He continues to produce projects, including his latest release, "Job", released in 2013.
