Brian Seff (Rick Right)
London
Born in Brooklyn, New York, Brian moved around quite a bit in his early life, eventually staying for eight years in Tucson, Arizona before he and his family moved to Southern California in his mid-teens.
He’d developed an interest in Rock & Roll Music from a very early age, buying lots of records and remembering all the trivial information about all the then current hits.
By the time he was ready to graduate high school, he was sure that being a Rock Star was his career choice, having switched over from cello to guitar at age 15, and almost immediately being able to play along with over half of any given week’s top 40 tunes, since most of them had no more than five chords anyway.
He moved to San Francisco after one year of college to further his dream. Unfortunately, he couldn’t take the role of Rock Star seriously enough, so with Rick & Ruby, who began as a 1950‘s revival act, he was able to develop his flair for satire and parody.
Brian had always envisioned living in England, originally from the British Invasion music, but then discovering in his young adulthood a liking for British humour as well. As the US comedy scene in the late 1990’s began to be less to his liking, and his second marriage was crumbling (He now has three divorces to his discredit), he chose to look across the Pond, and has never looked back.
Brit audiences have appreciated not only the variety of music that he can explore in 30 minutes on stage, but his ability to create on the spot material solely by audience suggestion.
