Ranch Picking Party at Fat Daddies Mansfield: Judges were Steve Helms and Tommy Alverson.  

Singer songwriter Rick Tate was born in Ft. Worth, moved from Forest Hills to Mansfield in 2nd grade. I attended Mansfield schools and raised my family there.

I married my high school sweetheart debbie. Music always took second place to providing for the family. so glad I was able to pick it up again and write and sing.

You can see Rick Tate perform at these dates and locations;

Rick frequented the Crowman Jam                       at several locations.       

DJ Mike Crow is the local singer/songwriters best friend in the business.

A song I wrote when Heather was starting school. I used power point Doodly to illustrate.

I wrote this for Father's Day. I was fortunate to visit with Dad on my way home from work while Dad lived with Elaine. Dad talked about the hard times growing up in southern Oklahoma, the War, his parents, and his memories were clear as yesterday.

Fun with A. I.

An argument turns into a song. Note: she says if you ask a question in which you already know what the answer is going to be, that is an argument. Now it is a song.
