"Is it psychedelic folk, dreamy Americana, singer-songwriter with frayed edges or something else that musicologists don't yet have a name for? There isn't really one box into which the music of Canadian Ryan Wayne fits completely. What is beyond dispute is that he has made a very beautiful, disarming record. Without drawing from a wide range of styles, each song still has its own individuality, its own mood and theme. It makes the album a beautiful whole, which we still haven't tired of hearing after more than twenty listens"

Ryan Wayne is a Canadian singer-songwriter and multi-instrumentalist. He first came to recognition as a founding member and songwriter in the critically acclaimed, award-winning band, The Warped 45s (Pheromone Recordings).
In early 2022, after several years away from touring and recording, Ryan suffered two strokes. As part of the healing process, Ryan was drawn back to the music world and began the final production and mixing on a series of self-produced songs with Grammy-Award-winning producer and mixing engineer, Malcolm Burn (Bob Dylan, Emmylou Harris, Patti Smith, Daniel Lanois). The record, “Crow Amongst the Sparrows”, was released in September, 2023. Ryan is currently recording a follow-up record.
Born and raised in the blue-collar town of Oshawa, just east of Toronto, Ryan grew up surrounded by music. His father is a songwriting truck driver, and Ryan spent countless summer nights singing with aunts, uncles, cousins, grandparents, and friends at the family cabin near Algonquin Park. During his musical career, Ryan has had the opportunity to tour the globe, sharing the stage with artists such as The Drive-By Truckers, The Skydiggers, Elliott Brood, Deer Tick, The Once, and Justin Rutledge. Ryan has also done session work with many artists including the likes of Dan Mangan.
