As well as releasing three critically acclaimed solo albums, one of which the Los Angeles Times called one of the best albums of 1990, Rick is probably best known as a founding member of "A Ragamuffin Band" formed by the late Rich Mullins in the early '90's. Rick performed with Rich until his untimely death in September 1997. At that time - at the request of Rich's family, estate, and record label - Rick resumed the production of Rich's posthumous release "The Jesus Record". The Jesus Record went on to win 2 Dove Awards, and had two # 1 songs, "My Deliverer" (sung by Rick) and "Nothing Is Beyond You" (sung by Amy Grant). Visit www.rickelias.com for more information.
