Nick Richards

Nick Richards (born 1960) is a British singer/musician who is perhaps best known internationally as the frontman for the 1980s synth pop/new wave band Boys Don't Cry (remembered for their 1986 hit, "I Wanna Be a Cowboy").[1] He had also previously recorded as a solo artist at Nippon Columbia and RCA from 1978 to 1982.

In 1983, he bought the Maison Rouge Recording Studios in London, where he subsequently put together Boys Don't Cry.

Richards has been married to his wife, Debbie, since the mid-1980s and they have seven children. The Richards family currently resides in Malibu, California. Richards' eldest children, son James and daughter Teddy-Rae, have joined their father in the newly revived Boys Don't Cry line-up.
