Background edit

Price relocated to Nashville United States in 2009, primarily to tour with his great friend Tommy Emmanuel. Following the completion of this tour, Price began to co-write with other artists in Nashville, which led to a new album.[3] During 2011 Price starred in a narrative concert, the theatrical production of The John Denver Story, interpreting the songs and story of John Denver. Backed by a full band, The Colorado Quartet, this production explores the personal life and the passions that drove Denver as an artist and individual. In just eight weeks, Price performed this show to in excess of 26,000 Australian theatre-goers, to overwhelming praise.[4]

Reviews edit

"The Water’s Edge indicates new influences and a broader style for Rick. While there are still echoes of a great pop artist, even more so, country and blues meld beautifully with folk sounds to create an album that transcends genre.". “The best album I have listened to in the past 20 years” - Mick King, Guitarist. “I listen to this CD as I travel in my car, it is pure genius” - Brian Lizotte, Owner, Australia’s top live entertainment venue.[5]
