Artist History
Rick and Willie were part of a popular Miami cover band during their high school senior year -- Revel. Rick began to introduce some self-penned originals into the rock sextet's repertoire and that promptly broke the band up. Anyway, Willie and Rick went on to form Paris By Air. The more talented Terri Gil handles the lead vocals for Paris By Air (found here at MP3.com -- check it out). This is their rough-side, usually cool demos and pre-finished vocals. |
