About Me

Yo, i'm Ryan. I am a mere 21 years of age and live in East Sussex in the UK. I'm a member of an up-and-coming uk band: Storm Engine, in which I perform the vocals (and dabble occasionally in keys and guitar). We're a collaboration of prog Rock and Funk, although the way labeling is going these days you'd have to hear it yourself to determine what we really sound like. I like to think we don't sound particularly like anything, yet manage to retain elements of popular songwriting that help us to be widely accessible. I'm also an avid fan of acting and get small kicks from designing the artwork and imagery for Storm Engine, film and media editing and relaxing as much as possible :D. I went to Brighton Institute of Modern Music where I studied modern vocals, music business, Music History and Music theory but soon discovered it wasn't for me (although i guess it depends on what you're looking for) so now I work at American Express and spend my days chasing people for lost payments and writing kick ass tunez for SE. If you've actually read all this then you're either doing so objectively or very strange. Either way thanks, thats all except check out my Storm Engine at www.myspace.com/stormengineband or www.stormengine.co.uk (under construction) And that just about wraps it up!
