Rick Warren Biography
Rick Warren is an accomplished guitarist and sound artist, who weaves technicolor dreamscapes using guitars, synthesizers and electronic effects.
Rick Warren
Originally from Kingston, NY, Rick’s earliest musical role was playing trumpet in his school band. When Rick discovered rock and roll, it was the sound of the electric guitar that captivated his imagination. He was influenced by Jimi Hendrix, Pete Townsend of The Who, and later by Larry Coryell and the Mahavishnu Orchestra’s John McLaughlin.
Throughout the years, Rick has been involved in the Hudson Valley music scene in many musical settings from power trios to jam bands and folk groups to singer-songwriter collaborations.
Rick has been very involved in the improvisational and experimental music scene led by Karl Berger of the Creative Music Studio in Woodstock. Berger’s visit to a high school music theory class that Rick was attending inspired him to become a regular participant with the Creative Improvisor’s Orchestra, continuing in part of Karl Berger’s legacy. Rick is also known for his soundscape compositions using his guitar and a variety of electronic sound sources.
Current projects include the Hippie Folk/rock duo 'Rick and Marilyn' performing cover tunes and original songs by Marilyn Miller; ‘spaceheater’, an improvisational rock/funk/psych/surf outfit including Sal Cataldi (Spaghetti Eastern Music) on guitar, David Strahl on bass, and Dana Fasano on the drum kit; ‘Guitars A Go Go’, an ambient/experimental guitar duo focused on accumulating various colored boxes with which to morph their guitar sounds into expansive soundscapes; and collaborations over the Internet with Philadelphia drummer Grant Calvin Weston in which tracks are sent back and forth resulting in ‘spontaneous creative composition’.
He has a reputation as a rock-solid supporter who can be creatively joyful when the situation calls for it.
