Rick's Bio -
Rick has been playing guitar and singing in West Michigan for over 35 years . Although he plays a mean electric guitar, acoustic guitar music is his first love, his "roots". He has hundreds of rock, folk, blues, and country songs in his repertoire. Rick can be as energetic or as mellow as the crowd demands. He adds warmth to his performance with tidbits of personal narrative and musical trivia. Available any day of the week - "Acoustic Guitar music for all occasions".

• Rick is the "Real Deal"! He doesn't use back-tracks or sheet music to distract from the emotional content of the music. People love the raw acoustic ballads and unplugged rockers that Rick performs with minimal gimmicks getting in the way of the energy and emotion.

Unlike many solo guitar / singers, you won't hear Rick Doogie playing the same old songs every night. He has a massive repertoire, and enjoys performing an impressive variety of styles.

• Rick's Repertoire of Songs.
Rick is good at mixing it up according to the crowd demographic. He is passionate about his music, and he is always friendly and polite to customers and staff.

• KaR Tunes
Rick and his wife Krystal have done hundreds of acoustic gigs as a duo; "one guitar and two singers". Krys and Rick have provided music for all kinds of bars, restaurants, birthdays, anniversaries, reunions, wedding ceremonies, receptions, New Year's Eve parties, backyard deck & pool parties. Krys and Rick are available for weekends.

• Guitar Lessons: Rick is now teaching intermediate guitar, electric and acoustic. Do you want to learn guitar from a pro? Inquire here: GuitarLessons@rickdoogie.com
