It was undeniable, he looked like John Denver, an artist he&#8217;d never heard of until that moment. It was during an era when the music of John Denver permeated the airwaves with sweetness and sunshine, a salve to the wounded and weary soldiers returning home unloved from an unpopular war. &#8220;John Denver was the biggest star in the world, and I didn&#8217;t have any idea who he was,&#8221; says Schuler, who quickly discovered that Denver was the guy on the radio whose music he loved. &#8220;I was a very shy kid, and John and I kind of became bonded. I taught myself to play guitar and it grew from there.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><a href=\"https:\/\/stlouisdad.com\/s\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/unnamed-78.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1200\" height=\"800\" src=\"https:\/\/stlouisdad.com\/s\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/unnamed-78.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-7091\" srcset=\"https:\/\/stlouisdad.com\/s\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/unnamed-78.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/stlouisdad.com\/s\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/unnamed-78-640x427.jpg 640w, https:\/\/stlouisdad.com\/s\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/unnamed-78-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/stlouisdad.com\/s\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/unnamed-78-600x400.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Nearly four decades later, Schuler has emerged as the leading performer of John Denver&#8217;s music. His ROCKY MOUNTAIN HIGH EXPERIENCE\u00ae is just that, a true, intimate experience. Schuler performs in front of thousands of Denver fans each year singing favorite hits such as &#8220;Sunshine on My Shoulders,&#8221; &#8220;Take Me Home Country Roads,&#8221; &#8220;You Fill Up My Senses,&#8221; and &#8220;Thank God I\u2019m a Country Boy.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This show will captivate audiences and offer an unforgettable experience celebrating the life and music of John Denver. Even Denver\u2019s bandmates sing Rick&#8217;s praises. Schuler not only sings, sounds, and looks like Denver, he shares his humanitarian spirit and incorporates his global works into the show. Also, Rick was chosen to open and close an upcoming major Hollywood film release called &#8220;Grace and Grit&#8221; starring Mena Suvari and Frances Fisher among others and directed by Sebastian Siegel.
