About

I was born and raised in Murwillumbah, NSW, where I developed a love for music and entertaining which led me to receive a Bachelor’s of Popular Music at the Queensland Conservatorium. My passion for performing allowed me to pursue opportunities in America where I managed and performed at hundreds of weddings and events for a private agency. I’m now back on the Goldie with my wife and two kids, excited to create special memories on your big day.

FAQ

Yes! I'm located on the Gold Coast but I'm regularly performing in Brisbane, Byron Bay and beyond.

Both! I usually start the evening with acoustic live music and end with all the bangers.

Yes. I have some very long extension chords to run power to ceremony locations

No issue at all! I have 2 full PA setups for smooth music transitions between locations.

Upon booking confirmation I’ll send through a link to my online forms to fill in some details and your specific song selections, which we’ll aim to have completed 4 weeks before your big day. There’s also a list of songs currently on my repertoire that are ceremony-appropriate to help with choosing your specific songs, and of course if there’s something not on my list that you have in mind, I can generally learn these for you, provided the 4 week notice period is given. Please note that my acoustic cover versions may be slightly different in style than the original version, but after all, that's the beauty of live music!

A $500 non-refundable deposit is required within 14 days to secure your date, with the balance to be paid 2 weeks before your special day. Payments are required via direct deposit. Cash is also an option.

Yes! Especially for the DJ sets. I'll work closely with you to get a sense of the vibe that you are going for. I always play to suit the environment

Ryan is an outstanding musician and a true professional! We hired him for our wedding, where he played a clever selection of songs that matched the atmosphere of both the ceremony and reception. Our guests commented on his song choices saying 'made me want to get up and boogie'. He even learned a couple of new songs for us, to make our day even more special. I would not hesitate to recommend him and I’ll be using him again, for other special occasions! Thank you!!!!

Ryan absolutely KILLED IT at our wedding! We wanted a big fun party with people dancing all night long and he absolutely delivered and then some! Ryan MC'd for us too and kept everything going smoothly and played all the right music for our group! If you are looking for a musician you know your guests will LOVE, and one that needs very little direction from the bride/groom to make it perfect, this is the most amazing one! He worked so well with us and truly made our reception our dream come true!

We had Ryan play and DJ at our wedding and he was phenomenal! The dance floor was pumping all night with him singing covers and then playing the classics late into the night. Our friends still comment about how good our wedding was and Ryan was a massive part of that. He was fantastic to work with and took the stress of music and the dance floor off our hands. He set an awesome vibe and had everyone up on the dance floor all night long! If you are looking for a wedding entertainer, Ryan would be the person I would highly recommend 🙌

Ryan was a dream to deal with, nothing was a problem. Very accommodating and very talented. His rendition of 'Hallelujah' as my wife was being walked into the ceremony was nothing short of incredible and will stick with us forever. Ryan knew exactly what to do with no fuss. Timing the mood with the right style tunes, 'first dance' grooves and then ramping up to get the dance floor pumping! His energy is amazing and matches the mood, we then kept him on as he morphed into a super DJ for the late night boogies! I gave him a couple of requests for the big moments, but other than that trusted him and left him to it! - I highly recommend him for your weddings, or big occasion. A genuine, friendly and funny bloke with true passion & talent. I might get married again, just to party with him again!

Ryan provided the musical entertainment at our wedding and delivered everything we wanted and so much more! He managed to strike the perfect balance of acoustic, easy listening tunes early in the evening, before transforming the venue into the night by inspiring an upbeat, fun filled dance floor with his repertoire of party classics and guest requests. Planning our wedding was made so much easier having Ryan on board as his laid back and flexible approach to his craft meant nothing was too much trouble, from initial conversations six months out, through to late changes on the day, Ryan was incredible. He also learnt our first dance song and absolutely nailed it! We could not recommend a better musician and person to ensure your entertainment is stress free and everything you could imagine on your wedding day.
