SAHARA SNOW formed in 1995 when RICK SPRINGFIELD and TIM PIERCE, having toured together all through the 80's, met keyboard guru BOB MARLETTE. The trio forged a bond through extensive and exhaustive writing and recording sessions. Those sessions yielded their first album, full of R&B tinged dance grooves, aggressive guitars and lush vocal arrangements. The 3 band members are busy in their own right, living and working in Los Angeles. Tim is a recording musician for feature films, TV and records, Bob as a record producer and writer and Rick as a writer, musician and actor. The trio looks ahead to future recording and expanding the groups musical horizons. RICK SPRINGFIELD is the GRAMMY award winning writer/singer from Australia. Among his 17 singles to reach the TOP 20 are such hits as "Jessie's Girl", "Celebrate Youth", "Don't Talk To Strangers", "Human Touch", Affair Of The Heart" and "Love Somebody".
