Ryan Wu

Combining the timeless grit of The Band, earnest subtleties of Gram Parsons, and spacey soul feel of Todd Rundgren along with the melodic embellishments of R&B masterminds such as Sade and Luther Vandross, Ryan Wu has created a sound that is nothing more than painfully honest and emotionally evocative. Born and raised in the southern parts of Brooklyn, NY, Wu constantly incorporates the warmth of his neighborhood to generate the raw feelings that are characteristic of his hometown. Whether it’s the twang-y lead guitar work, funky bass lines, and or the intense vocal strains he puts out, his desire to craft and arrange catchy harmonies and jiving’ instrumentation alone encompasses the classics while looking towards the future.
