Indiana is where I was raised with my two sisters by our amazing single mother. To say that money was tight was a massive understatement. Though we were financially poor, we were beyond blessed with the love of our family and the support of the church. I was given my first guitar at age 10, an $80 acoustic with a bent neck and five or fewer strings at any given time. I spent hundreds of hours in my room just trying to figure it out. By 15 I started singing, much to the misfortune of my sisters. After high school, I bounced around, playing open mics and parties, until I was 20, when I started my first real band, Eastonashe. I owe everything I have to the lessons I learned in those 10 EA years. In 2015 I was offered the opportunity that I had always prayed for. Quick backstory, in high school, while bussing tables at the local Honkytonk in my hometown of Cave Creek, Arizona, I met Liz Burns. It’s quite uncommon for patrons of a bar to strike up a conversation with the kid bussing tables. Uncommon for most, but not for Liz. Years later, I was playing at a popular Irish pub in Scottsdale when I saw a familiar face in the crowd; it turns out Liz owned that pub. We started meeting for lunch at least once a month for several years until she asked if I would be interested in signing with her if she started a record label – thus began Cave Creek Records. That is my story – God willing, there will be many chapters. I have a lot more songs to sing and stories to tell. God bless, Ryan
