Richard was born with be-bop in his heart and a twinkle in his left eye, the bastard child of Bernard Perdie and Cab Calloway. Growing up he beat 4/4 time against the walls of his wooden cage, invented melodies on his sister’s cassio, searching always for that uncut musical high. He first hoped to find it in the complex rhythms of classic jazz, days lost alone with his drum set, evenings frittered away in smoky juke joints across the length and breadth of his native Toronto. But after two decades spent in pursuit of this false prophet, he woke up with empty pockets and an arrhythmic hangover. Turning to the pop which he had always eschewed, wandering lost amidst the fragments of modern music scene, Richard birthed the persona which would allow him to express the indefinable sounds of his own soul– Dickystixxx.
