Rick is one of the best blues guys, and cares so much that blues carries on to the next generations. He does the gigs, but he also takes blues into the schools. He plays folk festivals and people listen up. His songwriting really reaches people - it feels familiar like he's telling stories you've lived yourself - I think that this award must be very encouraging for him. ~b.w. |
