Rick Guthrie is a studio project musician on Vancouver Island British Columbia (Canada). He tries to create stories, moving images and soundscapes in his music by building environments and plotlines centered around a common theme.

He has difficulty classifying his music, which he claims is a soup of progressive/hard rock elements and electronica with liberal doses of cinematic seasoning.

In his other life, Rick is a geomorphologist, and spends much of his free time in the mountains or on the coast. This landscape view of the world often permeates his musical endeavors.
