From Wikipedia, the free Encyclopedia
Ryan Liestman (born September 25, 1982) is a singer, songwriter, and producer from Minneapolis, Minnesota. With a unique style that blends the Minneapolis sound (made famous by Prince) with both old school soul and reggae, his music is fresh and vibrant. Having played keyboards/backup vocals for several top local acts beginning at the age of fifteen, Ryan is an unusually young seasoned veteran. Ryan's own group has also been nominated for several Minnesota Music Awards including "Best Reggae Band."
Ryan has worked with some of the most well known Minneapolis musicians. Michael Bland (drummer for Prince, Maxwell), Stokley Williams (leader of Mint Condition), and Mike Scott (guitarist for Prince during recent Musicology tour) are often seen performing in Ryan's band.
Ryan Liestman will release an album in September under the band name "The Rule." The band will consist of Ryan Liestman (lead vocals, songwriter, keyboards, drum machine, bass guitar), Jeff Bernett (guitar), and Gregory Washington (keyboards, backup vocals). A title for the new album has not yet been decided upon nor has a record label been chosen.
