Ryan Hiller

Ryan Hiller has known that music was going to be the focus of his life ever since he was born. He began singing at the early age of 5 years old, and took up the guitar a year later. He began playing professionally at the early age of fourteen in Park City, Utah. By the time he was out of high school, Ryan had been playing in over five working bands, one of which, "Real Eyes," had opened up for the Black Eyed Peas and John Scofield.

Ryan decided at age 18 to move to New Orleans, because he wanted to take his playing to the next level. He received a degree in jazz performance from the University of New Orleans five years later. While working on his degree he worked with may of the local artists, including Amy Trail www.amytrail.com, The Beacon Light Gospel Choir, The Zion Trinity Gospel Choir, The University of New Orleans Gospel Choir, and After 8 www.after8music.com.

Ryan has since established himself in San Diego, CA as a full time musician. He currently plays all over the city, and can be heard most nights of the week. Tuesdays at the Woodfin Hotel, Wednesdays at the Prospect Bar and Lounge, and every other Thursday at Beaumonts in La Jolla are some of his regular gigs. He recently played at the Rock and Roll marathon in front of over 30 thousand people, and at the main stage in Deer Valley Park City for one of their concert series.
