RYAN CHERNIN LOOKS FORWARD

Recording artist RYAN CHERNIN continues to amaze from AC40 to Top40 with his debut single “Look Right” (Inhuman Records). The powerful breakout hit is already closing in on the Top10 at AC40 (#11* this week) and just made a solid move to go Top20 (#20*) on our Top40 chart as well. Ryan grew up in a home filled with music, but he states that his parents were just a little older than most, so his house was filled with The Beatles from his Mom and Jay and The Americans from his Dad. Thus Ryan has a unique mix of folk, focused with a contemporary indie rock core inspired by the sounds of the 60s and 70s. The singer/songwriter presents a diverse collection of original songs crafted in a debut EP “You Know Who You Are” that truly shows the depth of just how good he really is. In college, Ryan studied film, and as an accomplished actor, spent much of his time in and around theaters. However, the spotlight is something the soft-spoken artist has never been entirely comfortable with. The reason, according to him, is simple: “Every time I got on stage and did musical theater, I was always a character. I was very much about throwing myself into those characters.” That disconnect is something Ryan struggled to overcome as he began working on his forthcoming debut EP. “It’s me up there. It’s my pain, my happiness. It’s all out there and it’s very vulnerable.” Ryan invites you to some excellent, good old-fashioned storytelling infused with the tonal stylings of the new analog age. It won’t be long before the music world falls for newcomer Ryan Chernin because it is beginning to happen already, right now.
