A young singer who is creating a stir in the USA is the 26 year old Ryan Shaw who has his first album "This Is Ryan Shaw" released this week on Columbia. You can read a full bio on his website.Check out his website for sound clips or go to Amazon or CD Universe to listen to clips of the whole album. He is also has a MySpace.
The CD is very strong mainly because of his voice and the quality of his intepretations of classic songs such as "I Found A Love" etc. He is curently touring and appears on the same bill as Joss Stone, Jon Cleary and John Legend. If you want to hear him in concert then tune into NPR who recorded a show earlier this year.
Got the CD...and can thoroughly recommend it..love his 'old school' voice...and if you didn't know his age....
ReplyDeletewith so many 'leaving us' it's good to have some 'youngsters' following on
