Rich was part of this process since day one; playing countless showcases with Jason and recording all of his publishing demos for Warner Chappell Music.
From 2002-2004 Rich was a member of the band RUSHLOW (Lyric Street) whose top 10 hit, "I Can’t Be Your Friend Anymore" is still a re-current favorite on country radio.

Rich attended the University of North Texas where he received a Master’s Degree in Music Education and Percussion.

Rich performed with RANDY BRECKER, LOU MARINI, BOB MINTZER, ANDY LAVERNE, FRANK MANTOOTH, TONY CAMPISE, DENNIS DiBLASIO, and BOB BECKER while attending this world class school. This amazing ’classical’ training, combined with Rich’s ’street’ experience make for a lethal combination in the studio. An intense knowledge of styles and knowing ’what is right for the song’, as well as highly developed reading skills and extreme versatility on ALL of the percussion instruments make for a ’one stop shopping’ experience for producers, artists, songwriters and bands.
