Synopsis / Overview

Born on the coast of British Columbia in a small seaside hamlet on Vancouver Island, Ryan’s first performances were comedy sketches for family members. He picked up a guitar in high school and played in talent contests and clubs in nearby cities as an under-aged performer. He moved to Vancouver after graduating high school, and spent a decade playing small clubs, hosting open mics, writing, and recording. Influenced by Jackson Browne, Chris Stapleton, Sturgill Simpson, Jason Isbell and Eddie Vedder, McMahon worked to find his own sound - and succeeded. He penned his first album, BETTER DAYS GONE BY in 2006. He moved back to Vancouver Island in 2008 and, as a solo artist, McMahon won a record three Vancouver Island Music Awards for Album of the Year, Male Artist of the Year and Male Vocalist of the Year in 2012 with ALL GOOD STORIES. After touring in support of that album, he joined forces with Cory Woodward and Christopher Arruda to create Lion Bear Fox, a trio that toured Canada, the U.S. and Europe until 2019. Several of his tunes have found placement in television programs, including Californication (“I’ll Be Damned”), The Real Husbands of Hollywood (“Double Life”) and Chesapeake Shores (“Takes Me Away, “In Line for a Smile”). A commercial campaign for TET Tea in Eastern Europe featured his song “Freedom.” Since 2020, Ryan’s focused on his songwriting and toured steadily as a popular solo act. “One More Fire” (Elbowroom Recordings) is Ryan’s first release to U.S. Country radio. He is sponsored by Gilmore Guitars of Red Deer, Alberta, Canada. In his spare time, he adds to his massive baseball memorabilia collection and enjoys family time, paddle boarding, cooking and watching baseball.nArtist Website: https://ryanmcmahon.com/ nArtist Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/ryanmcmahonmusic/ nArtist Twitter: https://twitter.com/rmcmahonmusic nArtist Instagram: www.instagram.com/ryanmcmahonmusic nArtist Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/artist/6Fq6imxdg0bFQh41DbtcJB nArtist Itunes: https://music.apple.com/us/artist/ryan-mcmahon/278505342 nEPK URL/Link (YouTube / Digital Rodeo/Sonicbids) https://www.youtube.com/ryanmcmahonmusic nnLabel: Elbowroom Recordings Ltd.nTRT: 4:12nISRC: QM4TX2227507nnSong IPI or Work # 222026683nSongwriter(s): Ryan McMahonnSongwriter(s) IPI Number(s): 296821624nnSong Publisher(s): McMahonerisms Publishing nSong Publisher(s) IPI Number(s): 771862217nPerf.
