Maddi Ryan

Hailing from just north of Boston, Maddi Ryan is an up and coming singer/songwriter who will steal your heart.


Her passion for singing and performing began when she was just a little girl. Her first stage was on top of her coffee table where she’d sing for anyone in her family who would listen.


Since then, Ryan and her band have performed all around the country at venues big and small and have had the opportunity to open for acts such as Ray Fulcher, Morgan Myles, and The Cadillac Three.


Her performances have earned Ryan multiple New England Music Award nominations including for ‘Country Act of the Year’, ‘Performer of the Year’, and ‘Album of the Year’ as well as a Boston Music Awards nomination for ‘Country Act of the Year’.


The Deli magazine highlights her, “clear ability to engage her most honest emotions, and deliver them cordially through her vocals, full of grace.”
