Ryan Downey
Artist
The defining feature of Ryan Downey’s music is his voice; a jaw-dropping, unmistakable baritone that drives his gloriously-crafted songwriting.
Downey blends intrigue and intimacy in his 2018 debut album Running. Long-listed in the Australian Music Prize, not a note detracts from his magnetic vocals as he sings a song cycle of humour and pathos, self-analysis, sex, love and modern life.
The Melbourne artist has won hearts of audiences locally and abroad with his mesmerising stage presence following a UK/EU tour supporting Marlon Williams, national tours with Emma Louise, Tiny Ruins and Sarah Blasko, sold-out headline shows and performances at Falls Festival, MONA, BigSound and more.
