Matthew Ryan Biography

Matthew Ryan is one of the most popular and richest Country Singer who was born on November 7, 1971 in Pennsylvania, Pennsylvania, United States. American alternative country music singer who is known for collaborating with Strays Don’t Sleep member Neil Hubbard. He has a dedicated fan base but has experienced limited commercial success.

After attending Valley Forge High School, Matthew Ryan arrived on the music scene on September 23, 1997 with May Day, produced by David Ricketts (Sheryl Crow, Meredith Brooks) and released on A&M Records. Drawing on such influences like John Cougar Mellencamp, Ryan showed a lot of potential on his debut album. Allmusic concluded, “The native of Chester, PA (near Philadelphia) was 25 at the time, but this is such a mature, emotionally honest effort that one got the impression he’d done more living than usual during his 25 years. Ryan’s voice is rough and has a very lived-in quality that proves most appropriate on such tales of loss, disappointment, and hurt as “Watch Your Step,” “Chrome,” and “Lights of the Commodore Barry.” There isn’t a lot of hope or optimism here; Ryan obviously didn’t hesitate to let some of his darker feelings flow when he went into the studio to record this album, which is as pessimistic as it is soulful, moving and personal.” A video was made for “Guilty”. The album is considered a classic of the genre.

Follow up album East Autumn Grin, was released on August 15, 2000 via A&M Records. The album was recorded at Kingsway Studio in New Orleans (with additional sessions in both Nashville and Oxnard, California) and was co- produced with Trina Shoemaker (known for her work with Sheryl Crow and Giant Sand). Ryan was joined by Soul Asylum’s Dave Pirner contributed trumpet on “Ballad Of A Limping Man,” former Concrete Blonde frontwoman Johnette Napolitano sang on “Sunk” and “The World Is On Fire,” Slow River/Rykodisc artist Josh Rouse tracked backing vocals on “I Hear A Symphony,” and David Ricketts, formerly of David & David, played keyboards, guitar and piano at Teatro in Oxnard, California, and at the Sound Emporium in Nashville. Ryan says of East Autumn Grin, “Not only did I want to create a collection of great recordings, but equally, a collection of great moments.” A U.S. promotional tour from July 25 through September 8 will take Ryan in an intimate acoustic setting to Louisville (July 25), Chicago (July 26), Minneapolis (July 27), Boston (July 31), New York (Aug. 1), Philadelphia (Aug. 2), Birmingham (Aug. 5), Austin (Aug. 14), Boulder, Gavin Convention (Aug. 17-18), Los Angeles release party (Aug. 22), San Francisco (August 23), Portland (Aug. 25-26), Seattle (Aug. 28-29), and a Nashville release party (Sept. 8) with a full band playing on the Boulder, Austin, Los Angeles and Nashville appearances.
