ABOUT POPCORE PROMOTION:

Rick started his career in music at the tender age of 15 as songwriter, guitar player and vocalist for the legendary Long Island band Iridesense. He has also previously written and recorded with Playmakers, an electronic outfit comprised of Grammy nominated producer Matt Stein and Total Eclipse from The X-Ecutioners. Over the past 15 years, his musical endeavors have gained huge notoriety in the press, on television, on radio and through the internet without the help of a major label largely due to Rick’s prowess in the field of public relations, booking, band management, marketing and promotion.

While working hard at helping his band reach their goals, and laterally working in the music business on many levels, he had an epiphany: why not use the contacts and the network he has compiled to create a business capable of creating the same buzz for other bands and companies in need?

PopCore Entertainment is that business.
