Upon his arrival he landed a weekly showcase backing singer-songwriters who played on the Broadway strip, which ultimately lead to traveling gigs throughout the year of 2015. By the end of 2015 David started writing with Big Tent Publishing Artists and quickly realized after dealing with constant dead end gigs to embark on a new journey as a singer- songwriter. Recording a short catalog of songs that has become known as David Ryan: The EP, David Ryan is setting out on re-branding himself and reaching out to new audiences as he sets out on the road in support of his debut EP in 2016....
