Rich Stillwell is a gifted singer/songwriter/poet/multi instrumentalist whose style comes from both Folk and Rock, which he expresses through his own unique blend of beauty, power, and fire. His lyrics speak eloquently about the depths of human experience, positive change, and transformation. 

 

Rich is also a top-notch guitarist in fingerpicking, rhythm and lead styles and taught professionally for twenty years. He also has played support to several major artists and was a session guitar player for many years. Through devoting full time to his own music he has produced an impressive body of work of over eighty songs while always striving for quality rather than quantity. He also plays piano, mandolin and bass which will be featured in the studio recordings of his songs. Rich is equally at home playing solo acoustic or electric music with a band and has many years of experience with both. Soundbytes of several of his acoustic songs, most of which will be on his upcoming live CD, are available here for listening while soundbytes of his electric music will be added soon.

 

His voice has a very dynamic range and can go from soft and beautiful to raw and powerful. This combined with his original songs and instrumental skill creates a moving and transforming experience for the listener.

 

"Music is and has always been my calling in life and it brings me great joy to share it with you!"
