Greetings All My Name is Ras Ric Williams and i aam the creator of the Band 'Mystic Vibrations'. Throughout my many years of realization, practice and growth I've gained many different titles, depending on who you may ask - which could range from student, teacher, lover, manager, producer, engineer or multifaceted musician- amongst multitude of other jobs and passions. I originated from and built my beginning foundations in my beloved homeland of Jamaica. Although in the early years of the nineties, I decided to migrate to the USA, where I began immediately seeking new and greater opportunities than were available to me back home. Ever since I was a youth escaping reality with my bare feet dancing in the local sugarcane patch, It was music which captivated and held the attention of every single fiber of my being.

The first group I helped to form and perform with was called ‘Sonny Mughead and The Pagaragers’ which later renamed 'The Londonians' in 1976. This band consisted of seven talented members: Lindell Allen Bass, Paul Francis Drums, Patrick Murrary Keys, Ralphton Lawrence Percussion, Audley Grant Rhythm Guitar,Denver Drummond Vocal and Charlton Williams Lead guitar and vocals.

During this time period the most lively and happening place in Jamaica for live music was in Negril. I was blessed to have played guitar for many main Artist of the time, such as Big Youth, U Roy, JC Lodge, Delroy Wilson, Ken Boothe, Keith Poppins, Freddie McKay, Mighty Diamonds, Culture and many more.

Starting in 1988, I toured internationally with ‘The Itals’ including gigs throughout The States, Canada, Europe and South America, continuing until 1995, This was also within the crucial time period when I laid groundwork for my own crew (1993), known to this day as “Mystic Vibrations”. This is a five piece band consist of Drum, Bass,Keys,Guitar and percussion. We tour mainly on the East Coast of the USA but gratefully also share connections in Canada as well as with many great Musicians, loving supporters and friends worldwide.
