Ryan Couron – Play What I Feel Like – Little Rock, Arkansas
Ryan Couron
Little Rock, Arkansas, might not be the first place you would look for young, new talent in country music. But thats exactly where you’ll find Ryan Couron, a twenty-year-old singer-songwriter who is turning heads with the release of his first promotional album in February 2006. The simply-titled Pre-Release album includes five original songs, one of which is already getting radio airplay across the United States and Canada and throughout Europe.
Ryan Couron’s songs authentically reflect his love of country life. His youthful exuberance and down-home goodness show themselves in the songs Huntin or Fishin, Saddle Up and Dirty. His beautiful ballad, Heaven, showcases the soothing vocals that are sure to become his trademark. Of course, all country singers need a good drinkin song, says Ryan, so we wrote The Drinkin Song. Its fun and funny.
In live performances, Ryan brings a fresh, unpretentious personality to the stage. He captivates audiences with his natural humor, infectious smile, clear, commanding voice and distinctive Southern edge. In addition to local gigs, Ryan performs at Johnnie Highs Country Music Revue in Arlington, Texas the same place well-known singers like LeeAnn Rimes and LeeAnn Womack began their careers. His first appearance there in mid-2005 evoked a thunderous ovation from the audience. Since then, Ryan Couron has been invited back to numerous Saturday night shows as the headline performance.
Ryan says that his music is greatly influenced by his favorite performers: Chris LeDoux, Randy Travis, Travis Tritt, Alan Jackson and Hank Williams, Jr. But he hopes his songs will make their own mark in the country music world. “I know its a long road ahead, but Im determined to stay on it.”
As he searches for a record label contract and financial backing, his dedication is already paying off with the release of this first album. And with the help of promoter Doug DeForest, Ryans popular song Saddle Up has made its way to a compilation CD distributed by Rick Stancil of Texas Country Artists.
Who would have guessed that this laid-back country performer began singing at the age of sixteen as a cantor for his church after completing Gregorian Chant classes at a Catholic seminary? It was this early vocal discipline that helped form the clear, true tones you hear in Ryans voice today. But his passion for country life and his talents in piano and guitar bind him tightly to the country music hes loved all his life.
Ryan Couron met co-writer John Connor McInnis while they worked together as teenage ranch hands. In no time they discovered their mutual love of music and started to compose their own songs. Ryan began singing those songs for friends and was soon fielding requests to stage live performances. Then his true genius for entertaining showed.
Ryan doesnt simply sing to his audience. He serenades each person as if no one else were there. Over an incredibly short two-year span, he has captured an impressively loyal fan base. His talents and fans continue to feed his desire for a full-time music career.
