There is a way in which a song reveals the true colors of its writer, and when the backstory of a writer navigates between a love of performing arts and five years of U.S. Navy service including a tour of duty in Afghanistan, one begins to understand why the songs from Ryan Ellis resonate in a way seldom heard. A true collision of creativity and raw honesty that can only flourish on the road less traveled. 

The ardent nature of Ryan’s songwriting has empowered him to write for veteran worship artists such as Chris Tomlin, Matt Redman, Natalie Grant, Meredith Andrews, Jared Andrews, House Fires, Jeremy Riddle, Steven Malcolm and For All Seasons. He received ASCAP's 'Most Performed Song 2018' award for “Resurrection Power” and an accompanying Dove Award Nomination as career milestones. Accolade, however, is not the fuel of Ellis’ fire. 

Ellis is not afraid to explore the deepest questions of life. Yet, amidst the inquisitions, there is always a lyric seasoned with hope at the end of the tunnel. This crossroad of question and answer is most poignantly depicted in his 2019 dual album release “Lyfe” and “Rysponse”. Lyfe and Rysponse are both a challenge and invitation to listeners to be candid about the struggle yet stand firm in the truth and promises of God.
