Ryan sent out a newsletter this morning. Here’s what it said:
A MESSAGE FROM RYAN
Here we are. All together at last. I have been keeping in touch with so many of you through the myspace updates, youtube, message boards and web sites. Now we are all here in one place, back to where it all started for a lot of you–personal e-mails from me, keeping you up to date with the latest in what’s going on. For those who are the pioneers, thanks for the patience and unconditional support I have felt from you from the Stage days, to the east village piano bar nights, all the way to international TV. A crazy ride I know, but I feel the same since I was 13. I want to get the music out to as many people as I can. That is why I am most humbled by your support because I know it all starts here with us.
For more, take the jump.
I have been in the studio since January working non-stop because unlike the rock band of brothers or the raw sketch-like material you have heard from me in the past, this new album is excitingly different and is exactly what I set out for it to be. I look forward to you hearing the modern rhythms, world sounds, and the intimate touches that I have put into this new music. It took time, as these things do, but I am now in the official, final stretch and I am vehemently awaiting the debut.
As you can tell already by the sender of this e-mail, there are great and passionate people working on helping us with what we have done in the past. They believe in the music and in getting it out to the world. Once again, I am honored to be writing this letter to what I believe are the most incredible supporters and look forward to seeing the list grow. My reciprocation to all of your love is presenting very soon to you, the music that has been created over the last 12 months. This collection is very special to me as an artist and I realize that I am able to make this music because you want to hear it. Thank you for everything. This will be the year.
He seems like such an awesome person. I’m ecstatic to hear this album.
