Rick Bermea

Rick began playing guitar on his $20 pawn shop special at age 13. His Mother bought him a Les Paul at 15. Around that time he played

his first gig with Arthur. They grew up together in the same hard streets in East Lubbock. Rick's first serious band was a country

band in the early 90s. It was at that time that he met Noe. Rick frustrated with the music scene stayed on the down low from around '95 until early

2001 when he happen to run into Marty at the post office. Marty knew Rick through Noe. "I had been bumming around the house and my wife Angie

had been on me for years to get back into a rock band. She knew how much music meant to me and she encouraged me to pick up an old bass I had

at the house and learn to play so I could join Marty and Noe", recalls Rick. Rick plays Ibanez basses and sings all the really high parts in the band.
