I'm Ric Curtice.

I have worked in the music business my entire career. From day one, I have been committed to the music. I understand that musicians are creative contractors and they work very hard on their craft.

I began at Tower Records and straight out of college worked as a personality in an on air shift at 98.5 FM KOME in San Jose. After 3 years at Radio I began working for the Marketing Department at MCA Records as their Northwest Regional Marketing Director, eventually applying my skills with Geffen Records and Interscope Records as Regional Product Development Manager through Universal Music and Video Distribution.

I own and operate More Music Production, which allows me to give you complete attention to detail. I pride myself on working with the best musicians in the business; it starts with talent and I provide quality music that connects with the fan.

Music is social, directs culture, and reconciles a crazy world; music entertains.
