Playing strong since the tender age of 5, he has made it known that he's a force to be reckoned with within the genre. Still studying in school, he's already worked as a sideman and recorded with Grammy Award-winning and Platinum Record-holding artists, not to mention he is the Lead Tenor Saxist of the UNCW Saxtet, as well as a composer and arranger for the band. Being a multi-instrumentalist, he's best known for his skill with the sax, drums, bass, and piano. Ryan has also been seen touring across the United States, performing in front of audiences as large as 73,000. This year he will be embarking on a new North American tour to promote his new album, "Doc's Blues", which features many prominant guest artists. (-www.ryansaranich.com) AIM sn: DrPhunkifize.
