Bio
OFFICIAL WEBSITE: www.RichardHarrisLive.com DIRECT E-MAIL: richard@richardharrislive.com Richard was born in a small town in Michigan, and started on cornet and trumpet in elementary school. He has performed everything from jazz to rock, classical, soul, and blues with groups in the Ann Arbor and Detroit, Michigan area, and in and around Toledo, Ohio. Today he lives and performs out of the Washington DC area. Richard has been influenced by such trumpet luminaries as Chet Baker, Clifford Brown, Miles Davis, Louis Armstrong, and Chris Botti. In June 2007, Richard was diagnosed with Amyloidosis, a very rare, progressive, debilitating, and fatal disease for which there is currently no cure. He decided to produce and record his first album as the leader of a jazz group, and to dedicate a portion of the proceeds from the sale of each CD to the public awareness of Amyloidosis and support for the patients and families that are affected by this devastating disease. Richard has a warm, intimate, romantic sound that mixes warmth and emotion with the lyrical west coast cool jazz sound made popular by trumpet legend Chet Baker. He is quickly becoming a highly sought after trumpeter on the contemporary jazz scene. His new album "Songs From My Heart" has been greeted with rave reviews. Scott Albin of Jazz.com rates the album as "OUTSTANDING. A WORK OF SUPERIOR MERIT". Edward Blanco of EJazzNews.com writes, "Harris features a sextet who together deliver a FIRST RATE PERFORMANCE THROUGHOUT. Harris manages to forge his own unique style playing a rich deep toned horn that seems perfect for the warm jazz found here. The original "CLUB HAVANA" is perhaps the breakout number of the album filled with delicious solos from the tenorist and Harris on flugelhorn as Kieswetter leaves the piano for electric piano dicing the sound in what turns out to be one riveting number eding in a crescendo of sounds...Sample the Richard Harris debut "Songs From My Heart" and ALLOW THIS ENCHANTING AND IMPRESSIVE SESSION OF CONTEMPORARY JAZZ TO TOUCH A PART OF YOUR SOUL." CD IS AVAILABLE AT: www.RichardHarrisLive.com AND CD Baby.com -

TODAY'S THOUGHT IS ABOUT DETERMINATION ...
"We all have DREAMS. But in order to make DREAMS
come into reality, it takes an awful lot of DETERMINATION,
DEDICATION, SELF-DISCIPLINE, and EFFORT."
~ Jesse Owens - Legendary Olympic Champion
Jesse Owens, the son of a sharecropper and grandson of a slave, achieved what no Olympian before him had accomplished. His stunning achievement of four gold medals at the 1936 Olympic games in Berlin has made him the best remembered athlete in Olympic history.
FAILURE CAN NEVER OVERTAKE US IF OUR DETERMINATION
TO SUCCEED IS STRONG ENOUGH!
With LOVE, RESPECT, and PEACE my friend,

"THE MATHEMATICS OF HIGH ACHIEVEMENT --
BEGIN with a DREAM.
DIVIDE the problems and conquer them one by one.
MULTIPLY the exciting possibilities in your mind.
SUBTRACT all the negative thoughts to get started.
ADD enthusiasm and determination.
And the RESULT will be the ATTAINMENT of your goal."

Follow Your Dreams Dana!
TODAY'S THOUGHT IS ABOUT FOLLOWING YOUR DREAMS ...
"You've got to FOLLOW YOUR PASSION. You've got
to figure out WHAT IT IS YOU LOVE--who you REALLY ARE.
And have the COURAGE to do that. I believe that the only
courage anybody ever needs is the COURAGE to FOLLOW
YOUR OWN DREAMS."
~ Oprah Winfrey
SUCCESS IS NOT FINAL ~ FAILURE IS NOT FATAL ~
IT IS THE COURAGE TO CONTINUE THAT COUNTS!
