"Don't ever let anyone change who you are! Be Yourself"
Just featured in Billboard, who praised Drew Ryn for her "soulful, stunning voice," 2018 continues to build the foundation for the incredible future of this young, rare talent.
Internationally recognized recording artist Drew Ryn was a top 6 finalist and fan favorite in the 2011 debut Season of The X-Factor. Drew, who was 14 at the time, took the world stage in 2011 with her stunning Seattle audition for the first season of The X-Factor. She progressed to The X-Factor’s Top 6 before being eliminated by the judges, even though she overwhelmingly won the country’s vote to win the entire show.
Soon after The X-Factor, Drew released her five-track debut EP “Hello It’s Me.” The EP was recorded live in Los Angeles and featured two original songs, a cover of Justin Beiber’s “Baby” and two Christmas songs. The EP quickly rose to #8 on the iTunes Pop Charts without a label, backing or promotion.
In early 2015, Drew was invited to speak at TEDx, where she shared her visions of being “ridiculously regularly” and unafraid to pursue one’s wildest dreams.
In January 2016, Drew released her 2nd EP - “180,” which received national radio play and extensive press. Her music and appeal has grown tremendously, as is evident by her global fanbase and list of radio and industry people who continue to promote her. She released her version of “What A Feeling” in 2017, which was premiered by both Billboard and Yahoo! Music. The past couple years, Drew has performed over 100 shows, traveled for a national radio tour, made 10+ live TV appearances and performed the feature track for high-budget animated film set to release in theaters and on Netflix in late 2018.
In early 2018 Drew signed a co-management deal in conjunction with Stanford Entertainment Group & Timelapse Music Group.
In addition to her own music, Drew top lines and features with globally recognized DJs. Her releases have been signed to multiple labels, including Warner, Spinnin’ Records, Maxximize Records and Bourne Recordings. Currently living in Nashville, TN, Drew is working on her debut album with a grammy nominated team. She is actively meeting with major labels and plans to release the album in the fall of 2018.
Drew has also become a powerful face of the Allstar Nation Tour (ANT), the United States’ premiere concert-based anti-bullying program. She has performed at over 100 concerts with ANT, singing and speaking to nearly 130,000 students, thousands of whom are now active fans.
