A couple songs from Pennsylvania native Matthew Ryan. Ryan has a rather… distinct voice. If that’s the sort of thing that bothers you, Ryan might not be up your alley. He’s officially marked as Alternative Country, but I’m not sure how well that definition fits. He is one of the few songwriters where closing my eyes automatically generates its own music video. The first song here, “Guilty”, is the first of his I heard and piqued my interest
This is my favorite song, also off his May Day album, which I consider to be one of the prizes of my collection.
I’m partial to “Return to Me” – which has a bit of a Pschadelic Furs feel to it.Report
Return to Me was the second one I was going to put up, if I hadn’t found Irrelevent. Anyone wanting to see it:
