Sam Ryan Band

4 or 5 years ago I was flat out scammed by a fake distribution company acting as an affiliate to a huge record company - and my page is still public on streaming services. My name. My music. My work. My song. This also ruined a working relationship I had with a producer, a really gifted one too - which hurt.

That’s one story of many - and I never gave up - I’ve noticed the world wants people like me to either work really hard - or, spend a lot of hollow money to make it look like I work really hard, while “they” inflate my pages with “fake” plays, followers and listeners, for a series of absolutely ridiculous reasons. So, working hard it is. And don’t get me wrong, I’m not complaining, this is the good stuff!

I consider these good problems. Why? You have to learn from your mistakes, right? This is the music business, of course I got duped. Why am I telling you this? I decided to take a road most people avoid - naturally - because music is important to me, to see out to the end. To one day, be at peace with playing music and to leave behind some cool grooves and memories that others might be inspired by. To have something to teach someone - I’m sure I’ll get duped again and probably again but that’s a risk I’m willing to take! So help me achieve my peace! I think we’re doing it the right way this time…

A wise man once told me to “just do the next right thing.” So, here I am, asking you for help. YouTube, to me, is one of the most impressive platforms for original artists - and to really navigate its tools - I need as many subscribers as possible.

Please watch our brand new music video for “Starting Over” and, hit the subscribe button! This is how you can support the Sam Ryan Band YouTube Channel and that means the world to us. One click. This video was produced by the very talented Art Varga -

Thank you so so much in advance and I hope you love the new song!

Also, catch me at John And Peter's this Thursday night and Saturday night at Hops/Scotch
