With a voice that cuts through the noise like a razor and a straight-shooting songwriting approach that tells it like it is. New England native Stephanie Ryann is staking her claim as one of country music’s boldest new voices. She blends her Northern roots with a fresh, fearless sound that’s all her own, showcasing a magnetic presence and raw authenticity that are impossible to igonore.
Ryann has spent her early years honing her craft before relocating to Nashville to chase her dream. Her journey has been anything but conventional - former volunteer firefighter turned fashion model turned country artist, she’s played dive bars, honky-tonks, and festivals, earning a reputation for her powerhouse vocals and genuine connection with audiences. Her independent spirit is reflected in every song she writes, from heartfelt tales of love and loss, to unapologetic tracks about living life on her own terms.
Shes’s been featured in outlets including CMT, WSM Radio, and Celeb Secret Country, and her songs have landed on numerous playlists, quickly making her a force in country music. Stephanie Ryann’s live shows are where she truly shines, performing alongside some of the biggest names in country music. She’s shared stages with artists including Matt Stell, Priscilla Block, Jamie O’Neal, Cole Swindell, Tenille Arts, Jackson Dean, Morgan Myles and more. With every performance, she proves she’s more than just a voice- she’s a storyteller who knows how to captivate a crowd and make a lasting impression.
Big man, bigger heart. Hailing from Stewartsville, a small town in southeast Minnesota, Aaron Simmons is best known for his unique combination of high-energy stage presence and vulnerable song writing. Nobody has more fun on stage, and nobody has is more in touch with the emotions his music conveys about love, lose, family, community, and chasing dreams.

Stephanie Ryann is a woman who's got something to say, whether you want to listen or not. Embracing country music's forward progression, Ryann's "storyteller" lyrics and unique vocal stylings showcase her influences from country, pop, and rock music. Recently compared to the likes of Ashley McBryde and Sara Evans, her sound is what sets her apart from other country artists on the scene.
The New England native is no stranger to the music industry, spending most of her late teens and early 20’s auditioning for TV shows such as American Idol, Nashville Star, and The Voice to assist in jump-starting her career. When that proved to be more of a dead end than an open road, the former firefighter turned fashion model turned musician looked to friends and fellow musicians Eliot Lewis (of the legendary pop duo Hall & Oates) and Kevin Totoian to help forge her own path into the music industry. In late 2018, Ryann released her debut, self-titled, EP and has been releasing singles ever since.
