About

Ryan Glenn is a 24-year-old writer, guitarist, and producer from Denton, Texas. His musical journey began at age 16 under the mentorship of Kevin Geil of Two Tons of Steel, and since then, he has performed on iconic stages such as Gruene Hall, The Kessler Theater, and the State Fair of Texas. Ryan has shared the stage with Texas music legends including Ray Wylie Hubbard, Dale Watson, Junior Brown, Silverada, and many others.

Alongside his band, The Honky Tonk Heat, Ryan blends the timeless sounds of the late 50's and early 60's with a fresh, heartfelt modern energy that connects with audiences of all ages.

Ryan also serves as a producer and recording engineer at Cosmic Mama Studio in Royse City, Texas, where he works alongside producer and gold-certified songwriter Tim Lightyear. Together, they help artists capture honest, intentional performances through an artist-first creative process.

While best known for his work as a performer and producer, Ryan considers himself a writer first, a storyteller whose creative voice spans music, poetry, and prose. He is an independently published poet and essayist, with work that explores themes of faith, longing, and the human condition. His dedication to writing informs every aspect of his artistry, shaping his songs, stage presence, and approach to production.

Grounded in tradition yet unafraid to explore new frontiers, Ryan Glenn stands as a multidimensional artist, working to preserve honest stories for generations to come.

PRESS / REVIEWS

“Ryan Glenn is a young man with an old soul. He has a deep connection with a sound that came way before his time. He is the real deal and I know he will continue to keep the classic sound alive for the next generation.”

-Kevin Geil (Two Tons of Steel)

 

"Distinctive and authentic, Glenn keeps things fresh while proving age is no barrier when it comes to maintaining a traditional sound."

- Americana UK 

 

"Ryan Glenn is a blast from the past. At a time when so much music is pumped out into the world and algorithms are tailoring playlists based on listening habits, it's great to know that there's such thing as a new "oldie but goodie."

- NPR Music

"With his crooner vocals and Rockabilly influence, Ryan brings the best parts of the retro music scene to modern day Texas music"

- Denton County Magazine

 

"[Ryan's] voice is so natural, it's like Roy Orbison or something. It's a really special voice." 

- John Pedigo (Producer)
