For over twenty years, T.R. Ritchie has toured North America, performing in music halls and coffeehouses, at festivals and house concerts, showcasing a lyric-driven, insightful, and frequently witty repertoire with folk, swing, country, and ragtime roots.

Self-taught as a musician, Ritchie learned his chops busking on the streets of Seattle in the late 1970s. Later he moved to the canyon country of southeast Utah, where in 2003 he lent advisory support to the newly established Moab Folk Festival, appeared as the first mainstage performer, and served as festival emcee. He continued to tour nationally, both as a solo artist and in support of long-time musical partner Cosy Sheridan. Last fall, T.R. returned to the Pacific Northwest to concentrate on his solo career. He currently makes his home in Bellingham, Washington.
