September 26, 2022Rick Fink recently performed for a benefit event for our nonprofit organization, Music Happens Project. He kicked off the event by getting everyone singing and moving around with his excellent song selection, which included his catchy original music. Lots of compliments from our attendees and they loved his punk-Americana sound and said he was very entertaining – sounding like there were several musicians on stage, not just one.
Whether it is a small gathering, house concert, backyard BBQ, or a special event, consider hiring Rick Fink One Man Band for your next event. You will not be sorry.

September 23, 2022Rick Fink One Man Band played a private party and a house concert at my house, and in both cases put smiles on the faces of the attendees, and got people up and dancing. They clearly loved his songs, as I do too. His catchy music was playing in the "jukebox in my head" for days afterward.

Either a guitar playing singer/songwriter crooning beautiful songs of bitter sweet salvation and love or a guy sitting on a suitcase pounding out consistently high energy grooves for an eclectic mix of original songs and well chosen covers with intensity, finesse and a sense of humor. In many cases...all of the above.
Rick Fink was the founding member and singer for the mighty Gas House Gorillas. Now he’s blazing his own trail as a one man band. Bringing a mix of classic rock, punk energy and rootsy singer-songwriter vibes to his music, Rick has been creating a unique sound all his own, armed with only a suitcase drum, a guitar, and a voice that bears the stamp of both Freddy Mercury and Joey Ramone with a dash of 70’s McCartney to boot! This one man groove machine calls his music Suitcase Punk. With the ability to swing from crowd pleasing rock and roll rave up to quiet melodious finger picking introspection, Rick can fit any size room, big or small!
Look out for Rick Fink live on the road at a venue near you, or book him at your own venue. He will not disappoint!
