Acrpost: A Project of the Pacific Association of Artist Run Centres

Event Description

Ryan McMahon likes to tell people he’s a late bloomer. But when looking at the body of work the 43-year-old from Ladysmith, British Columbia has amassed since 2006, he’s certainly made up for lost time. With six releases under his name and two with his side project Lion Bear Fox, Ryan has established himself as one of western Canada’s most prolific singer/songwriters, leading to multiple Vancouver Island Music Awards and supporting slots for Burton Cummings, Tom Cochrane, Mother Mother, Lee Harvey Osmond and others.

Touring in support of his latest release ‘Live Now’. The creation of ‘Live Now’ began in early 2022 with the recording of “One More Fire,” arranged with JUNO-nominated country artist Aaron Pritchett.

Engaging and honest, Ryan McMahon’s music is written from the heart and sung from the soul. It is as rock as folk can get before it starts to roll. A blend of folk, Americana and rock following the lead of his peers Jason Isbell, Nathaniel Rateliff, Father John Misty, Israel Nash. The singer songwriter has enough wit and charm to get through any situation and his songwriting fits every emotion into his live performance.
