Welcome to Rick's official website, hoping you are all safe and healthy in these uncertain times.  Nico and I are so pleased to be returning to the stage for the Whistler Children's Festival May 21; and to join Fred Penner and Charlotte Diamond for Best of Friends concerts at the Surrey Children's Festival May 27-29.

 

For Big Folks, July 8-10 we will play Vancouver Island Musicfest in Courtenay and the Islands Folk Festival in Duncan July 23. For more listings, please see SHOWS.

 

Valley and I were honoured to have our song Island Oohlahey arranged by Nico and performed by 67 voices in a virtual concert by the Nanaimo Sings Choir.

My song Angels Do will be featured in the next Nanaimo Sings concert later this year.

Congratulations to my wonderful producer, manager and wife Valley Hennell who has been inducted as a StarMeritus pioneer into the BC Entertainment Hall of Fame.
