Since receiving his first guitar at age 12 (a 1965 Silvertone) Ryan has been writing and playing music for his personal enjoyment for more than 30 years. After years of putting his music on assorted cassettes (and a 8 year layoff to take care of career and kids) Ryan put Pro Tools on an old computer in the back bedroom and began writing, playing and recording music again. It's a life-long hobby for him.
Ryan plays guitar, bass and keyboards and uses a drum machine for the beats.
I play live for my family. But since there's no band, there's no live act.
Ryan's main influences are:
The Beatles
Pete Townshend/The Who
The Velvet Underground
The Cure
Fender Telecaster; Epiphone Les Paul Junior 57 reissue; Fender MIJ Squire Strat; LTD KH-202; Martin acoustic; Yamaha keyboard; Yamaha BB1000s bass; Fender P-Bass special; Yamaha RY30 drum machine; Alesis SR 18 drum machine.
