With 17 gigs lined up, Rick Price proves he's more than a '90s memory. The 'Heaven Knows' hitmaker is back and better than ever.
Rick Price isn't just having a moment – he's having a bloody renaissance. The man who gave us 'Heaven Knows' and made every Australian swoon in the early '90s has 17 gigs coming up, and if you think this is just nostalgia touring, you're dead wrong.
Price never really went away, he just got better. While other artists from his era faded into obscurity or became tribute acts to their younger selves, the Queensland-born singer-songwriter kept writing, kept touring, kept evolving. Now, at a time when authentic artistry feels rarer than hen's teeth, Price represents something precious in Australian music – genuine craftsmanship that's weathered every trend and fashion.
The Songwriter's Songwriter
What sets Price apart isn't just his voice – though that falsetto still sends shivers down spines – it's his relentless commitment to the craft. This is a bloke who's written hits for everyone from Tina Turner to Mason Jennings, proving his songwriting chops extend far beyond his own catalogue.

His live shows are masterclasses in intimacy and connection. Price doesn't need smoke machines or backing dancers; he's got something more powerful – songs that burrow into your chest and refuse to leave. Whether he's playing to 50 people in a pub or 500 in a theatre, the man creates an atmosphere that's part concert, part confession.
Why Now Matters
In an era of manufactured pop and algorithm-driven playlists, Price represents something increasingly rare – an artist whose career has been shaped by talent, not marketing budgets. His current touring schedule proves there's still hunger for real musicianship in Australia.
The timing couldn't be better. As live music claws its way back from pandemic purgatory, audiences are craving authenticity. They want to feel something real, something that can't be auto-tuned or filtered through social media. Price delivers that in spades.
"Rick Price reminds us why singer-songwriters became a thing in the first place – because sometimes all you need is a voice, a guitar, and something important to say."
The Live Experience
Don't expect a greatest hits jukebox. Price's current shows blend career-spanning material with newer songs that prove he's still got plenty to say. His voice has aged like fine wine – deeper, richer, more emotionally complex than the young man who first charted in the '90s.
The intimate nature of his performances means every show feels different. Price reads the room, adjusts the setlist, tells stories that make each gig feel like a private audience with one of Australia's most underrated talents.
With 17 dates coming up across various venues, there's no excuse to miss this. Rick Price isn't chasing past glories – he's creating new ones.
