Growing
up in the suburbs of Detroit, MI. Rick began playing guitar at age
18. After spending a couple of years perfecting his craft, he began
playing with local area Detroit bands such as Outcast and Sudden
Rush. Rick then took several years off to spend time with his
family and relocate to Flint, Michigan. Rick’s love of music never
took him totally out of the music scene and before long found
himself showing his musical prowess in local Flint bands such as
Dunahmus, (www.dunahmus.com) Prime8Logic and Luna Black, which also
included ATA bassist/vocalist, Bryan Kelly. After forming ATA, Rick
immediately knew this was the project he had long been looking for.
Rick’s influences Include guitar greats such as Eddie Van Halen,
Dimebag Darrell and Zakk Wylde. Combining his musical style with the
other members of ATA was a perfect match to pursue his musical
dreams.
Rick plays: Peavey
Wolfgang and Washburn Dime guitars, Line 6 PODxt Live, Mills
Acoustic Cabinets, Digitech Whammy pedals and GHS Strings.
