RYAN GILLMOR
Pop / Rock / Acoustic
Ryan Gillmor seems fearless. Bravely leaving the comforts of an idle 4-man band, he ventures out into the enormous sea of hopeful musicians unescorted. With a lot of determination, hope, and a guitar or two, an with the musical freedom hes always dreamed of, things start moving like the speed of, wellsound.
On July 4th, 2006, Ryan released his debut solo ep, California Summer. With headphones in hand, he followed 2006s Vans Warped Tour, selling 2,000 copies at 20 stopsacross the country. In mere months, he shared the stage with such acts as Butch Walker, The Matches, The Higher, Lydia, Better Than Ezra, Collective Soul, Anna Nalick, Howie Day, Never Heard of it, Jupiter Sunrise, Wheatus, Brandston, Melee, Brighten, Danger Radio, Mayday Parade, Ronnie Day, Secondhand Serenade, Meg and Dia, Daphne Loves Derby, The Bravery, Sugarcult, Waking Ashland, The Velvet Teen and many more. With the release of his second solo ep, Counting the Days in 2007, a second and more successful Vans Warped Tour trip quickly followed, selling well over 2,000 cds at over 20 stops coast-to-coast. Counting the Days has found Ryan more attention than ever, earning his first single, titled, Hey, regular rotation on KWOD 106.5, one of Sacramentos leading radio stations. Packing clubs around Sacramento, Ryan felt the urge to expand his one-man-act into a full, hard-hitting band, adding Los Angeles area band members Jimmy Marvich, Justin Ivey, Tyler Thompson, and Jake Harrison. The stellar addition of these musicans has taken the music to an exciting new level, earning them attention from major music labels.
With soulful melodies, powerful, dead-on vocals, and lyrics so relatable
they will bring a person back in time to an experience similarly shared. Ryan brings beautiful, quirky music right down to earth.
