Artist History Richard is best known as the powerful voice announcer on Fox TV's sports programs. BUT... he has also been making music since 1967. He was in bands in Mpls, MN such as Tribe, Crimson, and Whitestone. After a 17 yr. career as a rock/country DJ, he decided to take his voice-over career solo. In 1994, Fox-TV signed him as the "voice" of their new sports division. Now, after saving his pennies and building his own 84-track studio in the beautiful foothills of southern California, he is ready to attack the music biz head on with his new record label, Shiny Records.

Group Members Richard Ervasti, founder and singer/guitarist PLUS over a dozen of LA's most accomplished session musicians.
