Carmel Visual Arts is proud to announce that Ryan David Orr is returning to Carmel to give a FREE intimate concert promoting his latest album “kopascetic“
Ryan has been writing and performing original music since he was about 14 years old, after being involved in musical productions such as the opera Tosca, performed at the Angus Bowmer Theatre in Ashland, Oregon, and in the First Annual Northwest Children’s Honor Choir, which performed at the Hult Center for the Performing Arts in Eugene, OR. He has played as a solo act and with bands all across the US. Inspirations are vast, including artists like Radiohead, Mos Def, Tool, Counting Crows, Beethoven, PJ Harvey, Thelonius Monk, Modest Mouse, Pearl Jam, and Tori Amos. He writes and produces many genres of music, but consistently returns to the rootsy side of things, folk and indie rock being his major passions.
