While most kids were playing cops and robbers, Ryan Hommel was playing Elvis. Now 27, while most of his peers are just attempting to find their footing in the workforce, Hommel is already a touring veteran and multi-faceted producer with artists like Stephen Kellogg, Seth Glier, Heather Maloney and The Sweetback Sisters. Coming into his own now as a solo artist, Ryan Hommel delivers his songs with a hyper-focused and intentional quiet intensity. Playing his mature, soulful and strong voice against his guitar playing, ranging from delicate and sincere to rowdy and uninhibited is just the kind of intellect that Hommel brings to his live performances; drawing audiences further and further in is the natural product of his honesty. And it will leave you wanting more each time. “Ryan Hommel delivers his beautiful music with a discipline and clarity that allows it to travel straight to your soul.” -Livingston Taylor "I recently heard Ryan sing a few of his songs... I was knocked out by his dynamic old-soul vocals and his sophisticated guitar legerdemain. He seemed able to play chords and improvise a melodic solo all at once." -Adam Levy (Norah Jones, Tracy Chapman, Amos Lee) SOUL - www.ryanhommel.com
