Rick DePaoli - Don't Lose Your Faith (elsesong 001)
Rick DePaoli was born in Sicily in 1965 and raised in Jersey City, where two lifelong passions took root: music and food. He grew up learning his family’s traditional recipes in their kitchen and food truck, later training at a culinary arts school and working in high-end New York City restaurants. After 25 years running his own food truck, he opened The Sicilian Guy, a Sicilian restaurant in Jersey City, in the fall of 2025.
Though cooking became his profession, music was always DePaoli’s deepest passion. In his youth, he played guitar in a rock band alongside a former bandmate who later went on to perform with Guns N’ Roses. Family responsibilities ultimately led him to focus on food, but music never left him.
In 2017, he was working seven nights a week from 10 p.m. to 5 a.m. in his food truck near the Daily News newspaper plant in Jersey City. While serving food to press workers on the night shift, DePaoli kept a guitar in his truck and wrote songs in between customers. He made a demo of the song he wrote the night before in his home studio during the daytime, often without sleep. When he had enough material, he moved on to recording them. A singer and guitarist, he recorded the album with renowned studio musicians: Michael Landau on guitar, Jimmy Johnson on bass, Andy Burton on piano, and Aaron Sterling on drums and percussion. The recordings were mixed by Grammy Award–winning engineer Kevin Killen, known for his work with U2, Peter Gabriel, and David Bowie. After completing the album, he pitched it to record labels but received no responses, leading him to shelve the project and focus entirely on his culinary career.
His collection of 13 songs was rediscovered in 2025 by elsewhere music and newly mastered by Taku Unami. The album Don’t Lose Your Faith reveals a body of work marked by rustic sincerity and heartfelt, straightforward singing—rare qualities in today’s music landscape. Honest, melodic, and deeply human, the songs evoke the spirit of ’60s and ’70s pop-rock while speaking directly to the heart. They reflect the soul of an artist torn between passion and responsibility, yet never losing faith in his music.
