“I grew up here on the farm catching lightning bugs in mason jars.” Ryan Broshear is the living breathing soul and embodiment of Country Music. His mother gave him his first guitar when he was 12 years old. His father gave him the lessons of a hard-working blue collar man who shared the music on the radio to express his feelings. With roots in Ohio, Texas, Tennessee, and a couple places in between, Ryan Broshear’s entire life has been set to the soundtrack of a classic country song. It’s about paying dues, building relationships and rolling with the punches. His self titled debut album packed with original songs was recorded in 2011 at Curb Studios in Nashville. It is sure to become that favorite CD that folks play again and again, and add to the soundtrack of their lives. These are the songs born of long drives, tough times, falling in love, and pick-up trucks getting repossessed. These are the twangs and reverb of an authentic bluesy artist strumming and picking his way into your heart. This is the kind of good ole’county music that can’t be faked or manufactured. Hey any die hard country fan can tell ya, they can’t teach this stuff in classroom. The singer songwriter has to have lived it first hand in order make this kind of honest down-home music.
