Rick Stephenson, ‘Chairman of the North’, takes His Sinatra to Europe and Nashville

Local tribute artist Rick Stephenson continues to shine on the international stage. He is currently in the Netherlands for Europe’s International Red Carpet Awards, where he will perform at the awards show and celebrate an incredible 14 nominations — including the coveted Tribute Artist of the Year (which he won in 2024) and Male Vocalist of the Year.

From there, Rick will travel on to Belgium and Italy. While in Italy, he will perform at several venues, including a special concert with one of the country’s top jazz guitarists, Frankie Lanaro.

Fans at home can also join in, as Rick will present livestreams from Italy featuring Lanaro and other prominent jazz musicians.

In November, Rick heads to Nashville for the prestigious Josie Music Awards, where he is nominated for the third year in a row for Tribute Artist of the Year and Male Vocalist of the Year.

He hopes 2025 will be the year he brings one home.

Closer to home, Rick has kept a busy schedule performing across Ontario.

He still made time for local events, including Kingsville Parks and Recreation’s Live at the Lighthouse. It was a beautiful evening for an outdoor concert and people were there early lining up their chairs.

Rick and Cathy wish to thank the community for their unwavering support and encouragement at every performance.
