Rick Summer has performed across the U.S. at festivals, coffee shops, colleges, clubs & other venues, vividly blending Acoustic Texas Blues, Folk Rock, Indie Pop and Americana arriving at style all his own.

Droit has opened for such artists as Peter Rowan, Nanci Griffith, Still On the Hill, Jack Hardy, The Derailers, Chris Chandler, Anne Feeney, Georgy Rock, Marienne, Danny Dolinger and others, his last CD released in 2007 titled "Kerrville Moon" is a collection of new original songs plus two great covers, one of "Landslide" by Stevie Nicks, the other of "Trouble In The Fields' by Rick West and Nanci Griffith.
His title track "Mississippi" (songwriter at large) is a real toe tapper and the CD chugs on down the river and is one of those you can put in your car's CD player and drive to.

He is currently working on a new CD with several special guests including Sara Hickman (Texas State Musician for 2010) ,Christopher Yarrow (son of Peter Yarrow of Peter, Paul & Mary) , Chuck Brodsky and Anne Feeney, the disc is being recorded in Austin by the great Mark Hallman who has produced gold albums for Ani Difranco, Carole King and others, Mark also played in Carole King's band as well as with Dan Fogelberg and plays drums and bass on several of Droit's originals

Tentative release date is Christmas 2009
