Ric Cunningham (Mr. Lounge) was raised in a musical home. His father was the music instructor in the small New England town in which he grew up. Whether it was recorded music playing or band rehearsals or private lessons in the house, Ric was engulfed in music. He went on to West Chester University to study Classical Music for two years before transferring up to Berklee College of Music to concentrate on Jazz and Contemporary Music and to study sax under the guidance of world renowned woodwind instructor, Joe Viola. Ric graduated with a B.S. in Music Education, but his real love was playing live and recording. After graduating he remained in the Boston area for several years playing with various Latin, Funk and Jazz Bands and also recording with several well know local artists: Bill Chinnock, Jonathan Edwards, Mat ‘Guitar’ Murphy (Blues Brothers) and Joe Perry (Aerosmith).
In 1983 Ric moved out to Los Angeles and worked with many artists before starting his 2 year stint with legendary R&B singer, Joe Cocker. After several World Tours and recording sessions, Ric left the band to relocate back on the East Coast(N.Y.C.), where he set up his recording studio/production house/record label, Music41, which specialized in background music for TV, Film and Commercials. He wrote, produced and performed the theme for MTVsports, music for the NBC Olympics, NBA, Daytime Dramas 'Another World', 'Guiding Light', 'Santa Barbara', commercials for Dodge, British Airlines, NY Mets and World Diamond Council and background music for the films "Soul in the Hole"(1997), "Invicta"(2009) and played on a song in "Bull Durham"(1988).
The 'LIVE' show is a combination of background music in the Lounge / Chill / SmoothJazz genre, entertaining performance, audience interaction and even contemporary Dance music if the situation calls for it... a Total Musical / Entertainment experience...
