Andy Pratt burst on the scene in 1973 with his iconic Columbia single 'Avenging Annie'. He spent 4 years in the big time, then disappeared, but really he never stopped. Please enjoy this selection of his newer work....it's worth the wait...

David Ryan is going places. From New England to Nashville; from Metal to Americana; from drummer to singer-songwriter—one thing is clear: this man is on a journey. His starting point on the map is the Boston suburbs, where he joined the school band at a young age. As a member of the drumline until graduation, David cultivated a solid respect and understanding of music.

Of course, that next stop on the map was a stint with some of the rock and metal bands in the Boston area. This stop in the journey led him to work with famed Rock icon Andy Pratt, who wrote and recorded some of the most beloved songs in the world. After drumming with Pratt, David’s journey crossed paths with Colene Walters, Porter Waggoner’s duet partner after Dolly Parton went solo. Walters, a Grand Ole Opry legend, needed and drummer, and David Ryan fit the bill.

David set his sights on Nashville. It was time to start moving on. It was here in Nashville that David began writing with Big Tent Publishing Artists and realized his dream to become a singer-songwriter. While playing gigs for others, he also wrote and recorded his own catalog of songs, now known as David Ryan, The EP.
