Ryanhood

Biography On the streets of Boston – in between classes at Berklee College of Music – Ryan Green found his calling with childhood friend Cameron Hood. While busking with their acoustic guitars, the two were snatched up by Clear Channel’s Tea Party Concerts booking agency. Since then, the two, under the name Ryanhood, have toured the country opening up for artists such as Jason Mraz, Kelly Clarkson, Lifehouse, Matt Nathanson, Mat Kearney, and the Plain White T’s. One part comedic exchange and one part music ensemble, Ryanhood has built a reputation around the country as one of the most entertaining and engaging acoustic duos today, performing 135 dates in 2008 alone.

Their airtight vocal harmonies, along with Ryan’s rapidly precise guitar riffs and Cameron’s soulfully rich lead vocals, create the pleasantly distinguishable “Ryanhood” sound. The song “Stopless,” off of their new album, features their signature duo vocal style: echoing each other throughout the verse then falling effortlessly into perfect parallel harmony over the chorus. This playful back-and-forth is supported by shimmering acoustic guitar hooks by Ryan and a steady rhythmic foundation set by Cameron. Their new album, The World Awaits, produced by Grammy winner Ross Hogarth (Melissa Etheridge, Ziggy Marley), features the same feel-good breakdowns and radio-ready hooks that fans have loved about Ryanhood for years.

Jamie Carroll

Jamie Carroll is an artist who writes and performs with honesty and passion that stems from his personal journey through life's lessons and experiences. He has seemingly boundless energy and Enthusiasm on and off stage.
His spirit is infectious and his music is powerfully captivating. He can be standing in a small room full of people or a festival of thousands and deliver his songs with the same conviction while holding the listeners in the palm of his hand.

Jamie says, "I write songs about Love, Grace and Forgiveness... without these things I would not be who I am and I would not feel so passionately about my songs. Beautiful things can rise up out of the ashes of our lives IF we allow them to. This is my story...so far.... pretty much falling down... and getting back up."
