Rick Paul's songs combine memorable pop/rock and country melodies with mature, often thought provoking, lyrics on life and love. His songs have been recorded by independent artists from the USA, Europe, and Asia, including Little River Band lead singer Wayne Nelson, who recorded "Little Child Lost" back in 2000 to promote the Child Alert Foundation. In 2004, teenage pop singer Nominjin took "All I Need to Know" to Top 5 in Mongolia for both radio and video play.
Rick's first full-length album, Love Holds On was released in July 2009. In reviewing the album, Music News Nashville's Janet Goodman indicated,"this Southern Californian artist has a unique whispering charm about his vocals that makes one take notice from the first warm note."

"The Araya Family and Friends Benefit Concert For Anamaria Araya" is this Friday, May 29th in Long Beach, Ca.
Anamaria has ovarian cancer. We've organized this concert as a way of helping her to pay for her medical care, show her support and at the same time we'll get to play and hear good music played by many of the Araya family musicians and good friends.
Hope you can come out. If you're not able to make it we'd appreciate any donation you can spare. Thanks so much.
Glad things are going good with your music. Things here are doing good. I still can't get on my facebook. I let a few more of my friends down here listen to your music and they really enjoy it. Hope you have a good weekend. Talk to you soon and maybe see you on facebook if I can ever get on. Debra.
