Composer/Author, Rick Lodie Geelens was born in Heerlen,
a town in the South of Limburg a province in
The Netherlands, and he lives in Maastricht, about 15 miles of his hometown.
At a very young age he showed a keen interest in various musical instruments.
At the age of 12 he
composed his first melody. Lodie , as he is called by family and friends is completely
self-taught.(autodidact)
Lodie does not have a high opinion of the music scene so he keeps clear of all this.
This is one of the many reasons why he does little or nothing to promote his compositions in spite of the
fact that many of them are of world quality and appealing to one and all.
People ask why there are no newspaper clippings,videoclips etc,etc. Well..... Lodie does not see the need to place clippings,
CD-Layout and such from his musical history of days gone by because he wishes the stress to be on his
music of here and now.
He has many compositions and lyrics,in various styles and languages to his credit.
He also wrote the openingtune for the Website of Dreamscape-Recordsltd, established in New York.
