Rick Melick
Rick started his professional career with Andy Gibb and has been touring Australia and the world ever since. Among the many gigs in a career that spans 3 plus decades you can include international artists Jeff ‘Skunk’ Baxter, (Steely Dan & Doobie Bros.) and Glenn Shorrock, (Little River Band) as well as iconic Australian acts including Dragon, Jon Stevens, Stevie Wright, Marc Hunter, Brian Cadd, Doug Parkinson and Jimmy Little. Over the years there have also been countless solo shows both in Australia and the USA. Although Rick has played on scores of recordings he has a very special place in his heart for his professional and personal relationship with the late John Denver which culminated in the piano and orchestra recording of the international hit single ‘For You’. From 1985-91 Rick was the managing partner in Reel Time, a professional recording studio in Sydney which hosted many of Australia’s premier musical artists and it was there that he got a chance to sharpen both his technical and artistic/production skills. From 1991 he followed the trend to a smaller more personal facility where he continues to record and produce music both for himself and others for all kinds of projects: independent and record company artists, as well as television and film which has also consistently featured in his capacity as a composer. In the late 1980′s he c0-wrote the theme song for the 26 part TV serial ‘Willing & Abel’ and currently he has the theme music for the long running sports series ‘Escaping With ET’ on air. The eco documentary special ‘Australian Adventure’ is set for international release in 2010 and he has incidental as well as recording credits. The country single ‘Where Do Old Cowboys Go’ which he also co-wrote spent 7 weeks at #1 on the Australian charts and was nominated for a Golden Guitar (kinda like the Grammy’s for Aussie country music.)
