BRYCE RYNESS

About Me

Bryce Ryness began singing when he was still a small boy in such illustrious venues as church and his living room. Spurred on by his sisters, Bryce joined the choir in high school and the rest is history. Bryce's love of singing and music has taken him across the country as 'Roger' in the 2006 National Tour of 'RENT'; to the Hollywood Bowl in 'CAMELOT', sharing the stage with Jeremy Irons & Melissa Errico; to the stage of the West Coast Ensmble where he starred as the title character in 'FLOYD COLLINS' (which led to an Ovation Award for Best Actor); singing back-up for Roger Daltrey, Sarah Brightman, Rodney Gilfrey, Marin Mazzie, and Josh Groban; and recently to New York City where he continues to pursue his passion of singing, writing songs, and performing. He recently left the Broadway Company of LEGALLY BLONDE to start work with the Public Theater's 40th Anniversary Revival of HAIR, playing in Central Park's Delacorte Theater July 22nd - August 31st.
Bryce's voice can be heard on Mosaic's "ANCIENT GOD" album, "The Sweet Potato Queens" demo cast album (Melissa Manchester), "A Tale of Two Princes" soundtrack, the SoCal VoCals' "Red Album" & "V3:Previously Unreleased", and on a plethora of bootleg YouTube videos. Also, Bryce provided background and lead vocals for the last five "Disney On Ice" shows.
The songs that Bryce writes are strongly influenced by Switchfoot, U2, Copeland, Peter Gabriel, and Kenna (to name a few). Be sure to catch Bryce at a live show because, as well as the reccordings turn out, it's quite another thing to see him live. Bryce Ryness thanks you for your support!
