The Ryan Harrington Band

The Ryan Harrington Band initially came together in Dresden in the summer of 2017. Nicole Haensch and Ryan Harrington met Max Waechtler and started playing together. The trio found bassist, Matthias Baumhauer, in the summer of 2018 and Tobias Eberhardt joined up on Saxophone at the end of 2018. The Band rounded out its lineup with the addition of keyboardist, Kristian Kaiser in 2019.

The band prides themselves on playing original music. Of course you can hear the occasional cover live, but the vast majority of the material is written and arranged by the members in the band. This is important to us, to bring new material we have written to you. We hope you enjoy our unique blend of music.

How do you describe yourselves? A promoter asked us this question for advertising. He wanted to write a small description of our band on his website. That was a very good question! Blues, yes we play Blues, but we got a little Soul, a pinch of Jazz, a healthy dose of Rock with some Funk thrown in for good measure. What are we? You decide!

Quality musicianship is a hallmark of the band. All of the members have played a substantial number of live shows and have significant studio time under their belts. Ryan Harrington has played with a large number of quality musicians on multiple continents. Ryan has opened up for blues heavyweights including Bobby “Blue” Bland and Luther “Guitar Jr.” Johnson who was Muddy Waters’ lead guitarist for two decades.
