Mike Ryan Bad Reputation

2015 release, the second full-length album by the country artist. Mike Ryan is a singer and songwriter with a knack for pairing lyrics with music that breathe life into a song. Though Mike would tell you "I've still got some road to travel as a writer," many will argue he's already established himself when it comes to "penning" clever new tunes. Then you hear him perform the songs he's crafted and you instantly know Mike Ryan is on another level. Smooth and soulful, he has uncommon vocal ability. God gave him talent, he's figured out how to use it. The songwriting and vocal talent that so many have come to recognize shines brilliantly with this album. The first single, "Dancing All Around It", grabs you with the first line and keeps you hooked as the story unfolds. "Easy"reminds you of the smooth classic country hits of the 80's, and "Wasting No More Whiskey" is a country lyrical masterpiece. Mike says of the new album "I had some trouble narrowing it down to just 10 songs out of all the new ones we had written, but that's a nice problem to have. It's a great feeling when you have more good songs than space on an album." The past success of The First One and Night Comes Falling coupled with his current momentum as an artist has built the anticipation for this album.
