Rick Spreitzer

Rick Spreitzer beats a guitar like an old man cleaning a dirty rug. He sings like nobody's angel. But if you spend any time with his songs, you're struck by the poetry that sleeps within his lines ... battered and blue, slung from a bruised chest and a sideways grin.

Says Rick 'There is a certain romance in seeking ballast through the bad luck and blue changes. For me, that is what the process of songwriting seems largely about. I try to carve out songs that have pieces of poetry, real emotional gravity and a sense of space. My aim is to write songs that really draw the listener in'

Rick Spreitzer has three collections of original material. His latest, From the Bottom, released in March, 2006, follows Dirt Tracks (2004) and Meanderthal (2002).
