In this episode, we’re just talkin’ blues with guitarist and songwriter Kerry B Ryan. Kerry takes us through his musical journey — from picking up the guitar at 13 to laying down raw, heartfelt blues tracks from his home studio. Influenced by greats like Hendrix, B.B. King, and Albert Collins, he shares his approach to songwriting, crafting tone, preparing for gigs, and navigating the challenges of promoting blues in the digital world.

We dive into his love of imperfection in recording, the freedom he finds in improvisation, and his deep commitment to staying true to the spirit of the blues. Plus, Kerry gives us a glimpse into his upcoming gigs, new projects, and what it means to truly make the blues your own.
