Band/artist history
Rick West was born in a small town in Maine. It seemed he was as far away from music as you can get. In his early teens, he started playing on an old guitar his grandmother bought him. She tought him the basics on how to play and sing. It wasnt until later in life his love of music took him to the stage. Rick started playing publicly while serving in the Marine Corp. and when stationed in Japan he entered a competition, winning first runner up. With the support of family and friends, after returning to the states he played locally on weekends at nightclubs, keeping his love for music alive. Rick is now signed with KMA Records out of Nashville and his new self title album is being released. Rick is proud to have performed for fund raisers like: Make A Wish Foundation Special Olympics Maine Childrens Cancer Program Salvation Army K-9 Search and Rescue Local Fire Departments Awards Received 2000 Pine Tree State CMA Cherokee - Modern Country Band Rick West - Modern Male Vocalist Rick West - Modern Male Entertainer 2001 Pine Tree State CMA Cherokee Modern and Traditional Country Band Modern and Traditional Vocal Group Rick West Modern Male Vocalist Traditional Male Vocalist and Entertainer National 2001 CMOA Las Vegas Cherokee - Rising Star, New Country Rick West - Traditional Male Vocalist and Entertainer
