About Me

RYAN'S MUSIC IS AVAILABLE ON ITUNES PROGRAM OR AT PATSGOLD.COM *by Dr. Herb Wong-San Francisco, CA. Ryan DeHues is the abundantly gifted singing prodigy who ignites audiences with his impressive vocal stylings and incredible command of the stage. Ryan valiantly keeps the flame burning for singing in the tradition of his influences-Mel Torme, Frank Sinatra, Jack Jones, and Bobby Darin. The music he sings reflects meticulous taste and the quality standards of the great American songbook writers such as Cole Porter, Jerome Kern, Sammy Chan, Jimmy Van Heusen, and Hoagy Carmichael. This music has been in his life since age 12. At 17, Ryan was a high school student in Michigan; he was the uncontested winner of the national "Search For America's Next Great Crooner" contest sponsored by singer Pat Boone's recording company, The Gold Label. Now, Ryan DeHues is geared to turn on the younger crowds to the "real music"! How wonderful it is that good music has a savior and ambassador in Ryan DeHues! His voice is one that you cannot and will not ignore, and one you will want to hear again and again.
