NEWS SOURCE: Merge PR September 13, 2024
NASHVILLE, TENN. (SEPTEMBER 13, 2024) Today GRAMMY-nominated artist Ryan Ellis releases a poignant new song, "Holy Place," from his forthcoming album Real Love. Listeners can also pre-order the new album beginning today; Real Love will be released on January 17, 2025. Click here to listen to the new single and pre-save the new album.
"I noticed a unifying theme of love and acceptance through all of the inspiration in writing this project," shares Ryan Ellis. "With so much heartache and division around us, what does God’s love, empathy, and understanding authentically look like in today’s world? That’s what this album hopes to question and capture."
This new album follows the acclaimed self-titled album released in 2022, which produced the hit singles "Heart of the Father" and "Gonna Be Alright." This summer Ellis released the double single "Without Jesus" / "Eva Comin' Down," following the viral hit "Better Days," which amassed more than 120K creates on TikTok alone paving the way for this new album. Ellis was nominated for his first GRAMMY Award this year for his songwriting on Maverick City Music's "God Problems" as well as a KLOVE Fan Award nomination and performance for "I Thank God” by Housefires featuring JWLKRS & Ryan Ellis.
MORE ABOUT RYAN ELLIS: GRAMMY-nominated, California native Ryan Ellis released his hit song “Heart of the Father” in 2022 and reached No. 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 No. 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”.
Loving music for as long as he can remember, it was when Ellis joined the Navy after high school when he reconnected with Jesus, realizing that his voice and songwriting are his connection to faith. After completing five years of service, including a tour of duty in Afghanistan, he recorded his first project, Isla Vista Worship, followed by two EP’s, Live from the Upper Room II and Kingdom Glory. He then dropped a dual LP Lyfe and Rysponse, both a challenge and invitation to listeners to be candid about the struggle yet stand firm in the truth and promises of God. He followed these releases with his self-titled album Ryan Ellis in 2022 which featured the hit songs “Heart of the Father” and “Gonna Be Alright”.
