Welcome!         Stay a while and find out more about me and my music.

              

Hello Fans and Friends:

I take a lot of heat (mostly from my wife) about not doing enough self promotion. I visit lots of other performer’s web sites and they are constantly updating their sites, listing their many awards, talking tales of the road, letting their fans know where they will be performing next, and I certainly admire them for having enough time to keep up with all that. I suppose someday when writing and performing is my only job I may actually be able to keep pace. I will, however, take this opportunity to do one tiny bit of self promotion. I am very excited to report that I am one of the five finalists in the Western Music Male nominations for the Academy of Western Artists, 2011. I am extremely grateful for those you that nominated me and we will see what happens in January when we go to Fort Worth, Texas for the awards ceremony.

The past year has been the busiest so far with trips to Arizona in January, the Genoa Cowboy Poetry and Music Gathering in May, and the Big Bear Festival in Big Bear, California. We met so many great people and I am very happy to report the newest CD, THIS SIDE OF THE DIRT has been well received and getting lots of airplay around the country. One of the highlights of the year was the 49’er Encampment in Furnace Creek, where not only was I a performer but was also tapped to be MC for the music events. Talk about working outside your comfort zone! Despite having never done that before it went off without too much confusion and perhaps someday they will ask me to do it again. It helps to work with professionals like: Chaparral, South Coast, Gemini, Belinda Gail, and Mary Kaye. They made my job all the easier.

We have some things in the works for next year….and will keep you all posted on developments as they come up. We do have performances coming up at the Diamond Valley Casino in Susanville in April and the Laws Railroad Museum in June for those that may be in the area. The exact dates will be listed in the up-coming performances schedule. Also in the works (currently in nebulous idea category) is a CD of all Nevada Songs. My intention is to re-record a few of the older tunes as well as add a few new ones as well. It should be interesting! Probably won’t sell well anywhere else but if I just sell one to every citizen of Nevada I should be OK. Perhaps with the exception of Hawaii I don’t know if there any CDs out there with tracks completely dedicated to one state.

Also up-coming next year at the end of April is the 3rd Genoa Cowboy Poetry and Music Gathering. Although I will not be one of the performers this year I would like to take a moment and urge those you that can make it to support the event. It is a terrific venue and certainly has the potential to grow into one of the premier events in the west. The event coordinators have put together an excellent list of performers and you will not be disappointed.

          I will be getting back to you soon and let ya know how the trip to Fort Worth goes. I’ll be keeping my fingers crossed. Interestingly enough I had not been to Texas in 50 years and now I will have gone there three times In 6 months……hummmmmmmm.

Thanks for all the support and hope to see you down the road.

"A singer and songwriter of unique wit and imagination, Richard’s original music and poetry captures the spirit of the west and those that live its lifestyle. Raised in historic mining town of Virginia City, Nevada, Richard grew up fascinated by the stories and characters that helped shape the history on Nevada and California. Surrounded by the Sierras, it’s ranches and mountains are a constant source on inspiration for the images and philosophies of the cowboys and those that are cowboys at heart."                     from   DaytonNVHistory .
