Ryan Blotnick grew up in the woods of Maine, raised on back-to-the-earth ideology, Paul Simon records, and brown rice. He discovered music by fingerpicking along to Stairway to Heaven and playing in Jimi Hendrix cover bands. After many years of playing and writing music, living in Copenhagen, and getting jazz-educated, he has finally made it to New York, the city of every Maine boy's dreams. He teaches guitar, plays in a few different bands, and writes strange music, with the hope of someday getting paid well to perform it. He likes music that challenges the feet, head, and heart.He owes a lot to the great teachers he has had, including Gene Bertoncini, Steve Cardenas, Lionel Loueke, Paul Meyers, Ed Roseman, Bob Thompson, John Abercrombie, Paul Caputo, and Lee Konitz.He has a Masters Degree in Performance from the Rytmisk Musikkonservatorium in Copenhagen, Denmark-----------------------------------------------------
