Biography of

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.)
