   About Wells of Rickett
Wells of Rickett was originally just my good friend Robert and I playing music and drinking wine. We didn't have a name, but I guess that's when this started. April was added about a year ago, Shortly after which the two of us moved here to LA from Atlanta. Sadly, Robert has responsibilities far greater than mine and was forced to stay in the state of Georgia. Though he lives across the country, we continue, with some difficulty, to collaborate and record with him.

Here in LA, April and I met Rose and I'm happy to say that she is now a member of this slowly growing ensemble. I've been writing music since I was 16. Some of it has survived through revisions, some has died with old bands... some is fresh and some is still in the works. What you hear on this page is a small collection of newer demos and older recordings, the latter of the two include Mike Albanese on drums. We're still in our infancy and are recording and hunting new members continuously. To stay updated, subscribe to our blog. Thanks for visiting our myspace and lending us your ears for a moment. this layout is from whateverlife.com!

The ATMA





Aug 30 2008 6:19 PM

There are people
Who would keep a
Weary eye upon a peep hole
Of a door
Looking for
Someone to befriend before
Saying simply
I am guilty
Of the want to have you with me
So it goes
We are those
Who will say aloud in prose
Thanks to thee
For finding we
The wacky Atma Family
We won’t run
From what you've done
We accept you as our chum
We won't hide
If you come by
We accept you in our Pride
Of Lion Cubs
Smoking dubs
Or if your sober, we don't judge
Thanks again,
Know its been
A creamy treat to call you "Friend"

Three cheers For Beers! (Or Ginger-ale)

Love

The Atma
