Rick Ryan was raised just north of Birmingham, in an area rich with musical diversity. Beginning as a bassist, he continued his studies in piano, bass and guitar through college, earning a scholarship with the touring ensemble. He later moved to Nashville to pursue the dream of being a musician, "paying dues" in the clubs and honkytonks that made Music City what it is. It's here that he began to really experience, and develop a love for the genre of Country Music.

In 1997, he landed a gig with Stonewall Jackson, a legendary member of the world-famous Grand Ole Opry. As bassist and background vocalist for Mr. Jackson, it was Ryan's privilege to open the road shows, as well as sideman duties on the weekly Opry TV and radio broadcasts.

He also has performed with a number of name artists; (Grand Ole Opry) Jack Greene, Jean Shepherd, Little Jimmy Dickens, Billy Walker, George Hamilton IV, Jimmy C. NewMan, Jeannie Seeley, Jim Ed Brown, Helen Cornelius, Ernie Ashworth, Jan Howard, Bobby Bare, Jeannie C. Riley (Harper Valley PTA), Michael Twitty, Stella Parton, Wanda Jackson, Steven Wesley (Tootsies), Christy McDonald (Nashville Star2005), Ken Mellons (Rub a Dub), Leona Williams, Melanie Torres and Dustin Wilkes (Nashville Star2006).

Ryan presently performs as a Solo Entertainer at various venues; weddings, private parties, charity events, clubs and corporate events. His live shows are consistently getting great reviews and reflect the style and professionalism you would expect from someone with this level of experience. His zeal, passion for music and love for performing shine through.
