Although the pandemic didn’t slow down Ryan’s writing ability, he realized that everyone was going through the same emotions and songs began to sound the same. His music heavily focuses on the passionate part of living and the honesty that comes with it. Sugar coating isn’t his style. In the interview I got to sit in on through 1824•, he opened up about struggling with feeling worthy, “I think imposture syndrome is a very very real thing for a lot of artists. I know it is for me. And it’s tough because I have to be my champion.” He mentions that it’s hard to know the process of everything and how it’s made, yet still be blissful in it, “It’s a very easy thing to be trapped in.”
Watch the official music video for Ryan’s song “Superstar,” the second track off of his album Northend Sweetheart.
