Matthew Ryan and The Silver State


Here is a cool clip from Youtube featuring singer songwriter Matthew Ryan. This guy's been around for quite awhile, and has garnered some critical praise, but no big success. Lets hope his new record changes all that. This song is a solo acoustic number, and it just kills. Check out the great lyrics. His new album features a full band on many of the songs, something different for Ryan. I've also included a clip with the band backing him up. His most recent outings have been mostly solo acoustic affairs. As much as I love the first clip, I can't wait to hear the whole record with the band backing him up. I'll have a review once I purchase the disc and give it a few listens. Using his back catalogue as a reference point, I'd recommend just picking up the disc without sampling it. Take it home, give it a spin, and let the music take you for a ride.
