Kings in Manhattan, recorded 4 studio albums, and made a St. Patrick's day appearance on Good Morning America in 1998. Prior to those years, his first gig was in 1989 at the legendary Pipeline in Newark with The Suspects, opening for Dr. Zeus, a band he later joined in 1990. Perry, under the alias of “Ritch Ritchell”, and other members of DZ eventually morphed into the fusion band "Chumpot" in 1994. After releasing their full length CD "Chumpot presents Sounds" a classic promotional appearance was made on the "Uncle Floyd Show". Most recently, Perry has played in the indie rock band, Hidden Cabins, from 2015 to 2018 recording a 5 song EP, "Hidden Cabins Band" that was released in 2018. Growing up on classic rock, teen angst and testosterone led to the discovery of thrash metal, punk, and hardcore in the late 80s. Wanting more, jazz bepop, funk and ska began to grow on the musical tentacles. "I started drumming at 15 because of John Bonham, continued at 18 due to Clive Burr and Topper Headon and kept on at 24 thanks to Art Blakey and Max Roach" says RP. After 32 years of playing in bands, Rich has gone full circle to this fab classic rock outfit and outlet known as Blue North.
