ABOUT RYAN ELLIS: Ryan Ellis is a Grammy Nominated, California native and Navy veteran, who released his hit song “Heart of the Father” in 2022 and reached #2 on both the Christian Airplay and Christian AC Airplay charts. He’s penned songs such as "Resurrection Power" by Chris Tomlin, which earned him a GMA Dove Award nomination and ASCAP's "Most Performed Song" award in 2018. Housefires’ “I Thank God” featuring Ryan, was a multi-chart #1 for 10 consecutive weeks. Accolade, however, is not the fuel of Ellis’ fire. “I’m a devoted husband and father first,” he says. “I have a deep love for Jesus and the way songs draw people in to experience Him, to be inspired and encouraged and ultimately to let them know that they are loved”. Ryan released his self-titled album in 2022 which featured the hit songs “Heart of the Father” and “Gonna Be Alright”. He is now ready to share his new double single “Without Jesus”/“Eva Comin’ Down” (Provident Label Group/Sony Music) - the follow-up to his viral hit “Better Days” which amassed over 120k creates on TikTok alone. This marks the start of a lot more music on the way this year.
