Australian singer/songwriter Rick Price heads out on the ‘Soulville’ Tour from May 6th ’22 to perform all the tracks from his album “Soulville” along with those classic hits, we all know and love. Rick’s rich heritage set against a country Queensland backdrop led to the
international heady heights of success back in the ‘90’s with hit singles and album ‘Not A Day Goes By’, ‘Walk Away Renee’ and, ‘Heaven Knows’, for which he also received the APRA Song Of The Year Award. Rick was also recognised for his efforts overseas being awarded the Export Music’s ‘Outstanding Achievements Abroad’ and recently APRA’s ‘Overseas Recognition’ Award for his work as a songwriter, multi-instrumentalist and record producer.
“Soulville” is Rick’s 10th studio album and was released through Sony Music Entertainment in August 2021. His soulful renditions on this twelve-track album are a ‘tip of the hat’ to his heroes and influences in music. These classics come from the 1960’s, Crème de la crème soul legends and include Eddie Floyd’s ‘Knock On Wood’, ‘Walk On By’ by the iconic Dionee Warwick, the immortal Aretha Franklin’s ‘Chain Of Fools’ and ‘Soulville’, Martha and the Vandellas ‘Dancing In The Streets’ and a stirring version of the time-honoured
Sam Cooke’s ‘A Change is Gonna Come’. The one original track on
“Soulville” is ‘Farewell But Not Goodbye’, is a tribute to the “Queen of Soul”, herself the late great Aretha Franklin, written by Price and fellow Aussie hit maker John Capek. “I can’t wait to play this album live!! I’ll be performing tracks from “Soulville”, a collection of songs from the 1960’s Soul Era. ‘In The Midnight Hour’, ‘Stand By Me’, ‘Sittin’ On The Dock Of The Bay’, ‘I Heard It Through The Grapevine’... just to name a few. Some shows will be with a full Band and some will be solo electric. See you soon!” – Rick Price
“The voice of this soulful Australian has the power to silence rooms and move hearts, as he belts out notes created by the God's themselves. Each word is delivered with such reassurance and understanding, while each note and chord goes out of it's way to invoke emotions within you”. - Mark Spencer
