Album Notes

Rick Trice is an independent singer/ songwriter/ actor/ preacher who lives in the cool mountain foothills of Northern New Mexico with his beautiful and talented wife, Linda, who joins him on keyboards, both on stage and in the studio, in their self-titled band, "Trice." Rick has been writing and performing a unique blend of (what would now be called) "alternative - hard - country - rock for over 35 years now, pounding out his diverse melodies on a variety of instruments, including guitars, drums, and keyboards.

Trice’s songwriting is heavily influenced by a wide range of musicians, including Lennon/McCartney, Pete Townsend, Hoyt Axton, Justin Hayward, Phil Keaggy, Barry Gibb, James Taylor, Mark Knopfler, Michael Nesmith, Paul Simon, Rich Mullins, Ian Anderson, Genesis, Carlos Santana, Eric Clapton, Willie Nelson, Rush, Steely Dan, and David Gilmour, to name but a few.

His lyrics are heavily influenced by God's Word, the Bible.

Rick divides his time amongst songwriting, recording, performing, acting & directing (stage plays), and teaching the Bible at a local church. In his "spare time," he also works in the financial world to help supplement these passions and pay the bills!

His music reflects his journey of faith in Christ Jesus, exhorts others to find and nurture their own relationship with their Creator and Redeemer, and urges us to find and excel in those gifts within ourselves that are unique.
