Music Reviews
C. Joseph Gough (producer/engineer-Crystal Studios)
"Hip without the hop...refreshingly complete lyrically & musically. With his latest compostions, it's as if the music just magically happens..."
Mac McDonald (Chief editor for the GO!, Monterey County's Entertainment Weekly)
"His first album, "Bagdaddio" released in 2003, is stunning in its breadth, maturity and complexity, with folk, pop, rock, rap and spoken word all incorporated in the mix. Orr's weathered voice is a cross between Peter Gabriel and Eddie Vedder"
Alisa Fineman (Award Winning Singer/Songwriter)
“Beautiful melodies and unique voice with lots of texture and emotion.”
John Popper(Grammy winning frontman for Blues Traveler)
"Tender, powerful songwriting. Ryan will take you right into the moment with him & connect his heart to yours."
Audrey Fontaine (Concert Promoter)
"...a great voice with intense depth and a wonderful high range as well; a cross between Eddie Vedder and Dave Matthews. His guitar playing is well executed, and his lyrics are amazingly deep and profound, with themes ranging from love to politics."
Bryant L. Clifford (Poet/author/actor)
"When I heard Ryan sing it was as if I were in the anachronistic zone, a very sweet dream. I could feel the walls speak of history... He is a prince of light, and has nothing but love in his heart. It comes through his music, as a seed grows ... a climb upward for light., and a blossoming."
