BIOGRAPHY
Price will be performing tracks from his new studio album, 'Hometown' including 'You Can't Keep A Good Man Down' and 'Let It Go' along with his classic hits - 'Heaven Knows', 'Not a Day Goes By', 'Walk Away Renee' and 'River of Love.'

Australian Singer/Songwriter Rick Price has walked the journey many musicians’ dreams are made of. From his humble beginnings as a child performer with his family band in country Queensland dancehalls, this self-taught artist has forged an internationally praised and respected career spanning three decades.

Multiple gold and platinum selling albums and numerous music industry awards including the prestigious APRA Song Of The year award for his song “Heaven Knows” and both the APRA, Global APRA Music Awards 2020 and Export Music Australia awards for his outstanding achievements abroad, are just some of his accolades.

In 2009 a move to the United States sparked not only new influences and a broader style for Price but also a return to his childhood musical roots in country, rhythm and blues, though the ever-present pop influence of Price's songwriting still rings through his albums and EP such as ‘The Water’s Edge’, ‘Tennessee Sky’, ‘Soulville’, ‘Wayfairing Stranger’ and his newest album, ‘Hometown’.

Audiences all over the globe and moved by Ric’s amazing voice and soulful songs. A multi-instrumentalist, he is clearly the consummate performer.

Price has worked with numerous artists as a vocalist, songwriter and record producer including Tina Arena, Tommy Emmanuel, Mitch Grainger, Regine Velasque, Jack Jones and Dami Im.

Currently Price resides in Nashville,Tennessee where he continues to write and record his music. His 12th studio album “Hometown” which is his first studio album of original music in 9 years is due for release August 2024

WHAT THE PRESS SAY…
“Price’s voice is beautifully melodic. The years since his hits ‘Heaven Knows’ and ‘Not A Day Goes By’, have given his tone greater maturity and lushness while retaining a soaring boyishness. He offers these songs with a fresh touch, they lilt and drift through the audience like saccharine kisses.” - The Music
“When I think of the very best that the Australian music industry has to offer, Rick Price and his debut album are always at the top of my list. While it has been over 25 years since I was first exposed to this exceptional album, I can say with complete honesty that it feels as fresh as the day it was released.” - Mark Greentree Subject Sounds
“This is a solid and very enjoyable pop-rock record, with soaring choruses, vocals that are strong and sweet, lyrics that are straightforward and romantic, and melodies that stick with you; it's not brain surgery, but it IS good music!” - Rate Your Music
“Armed with an incredible voice, an acoustic guitar and occasional piano, stripping the songs back to a bare bone campfire sing along, this is where Price is at home these days. His voice is just as remarkable as it has always been, whilst he’s also no slouch on the acoustic guitar.” - The RocPit
“Rick Price is a wonderful musician and song-writer and this album exemplifies that the man has a good heart. He’s singing in different ranges on this album but I really love the sound of his pop voice in the modern country song “Tennessee Sky.” If Rick Price is playing near you, check him out as he is a great live performer too.” - SYMusic
