Bryan is an award-winning, Americana songwriter from Memphis, TN. His debut album Just A Man (2004) garnished him a loyal following in the Mid-South, as well as two “Best Of” Memphis Songwriter Awards. His second album Long Hard Road (2006) took Bryan and The Retrievers (his band) to the regional level, with independent/internet radio play over the Southeast. Bryan's new EP, Tangle Me Up In You (released May 2013), promises to grow Bryan's audience even farther. Tangle Me Up In You features 6 new songs from Bryan. One of these songs, "Southern Rain", was recently selected for use in the independent film Christmas Ride (release date of October 2013).
