About Me

Wassup YO.....I'm Bret Ryan.....The last year of my life has been pretty incredible.....I got signed to Capitol Records, went to L.A a whole bunch of times, and had the opportunity to make my record with some of the best in the business.....The lineup includes: 18 time drummer of the year Vinnie Colaiuta (Sting, Faith Hill, Megadeth and Jeff Beck) Arranger David Campbell (Faith Hill, Avril Lavigne, Josh Groban, My Chemical Romance, Natasha Bedingfield) and Grammy Award Winning Mixer Chris Lord-Alge (Green Day).....This all happened because of the great team of people I have by my side.....The songs I have up on my page are demo's that will not be on the record.....I can't wait for you all to hear my debut coming soon!.....ROCK ON PEOPLE!!!!!!
