In Episode #201 of The XS Noize Podcast, host Mark Millar interviews acclaimed singer-songwriter Ryan McMullan about his long-awaited debut album Redesign.

Early in his career, Ryan McMullan earned praise from icons like Ed Sheeran, who called his voice a "rare jewel," and Gary Lightbody of Snow Patrol, who described it as angelic. His rise was remarkable, from supporting Sheeran to selling out tours.

In 2022, with his debut album Redesign and a world tour planned, his future seemed bright. However, a severe mental health crisis forced him to cancel his plans, halting his momentum.

In this episode, Ryan discusses all the above as we delve into the songwriting and inspiration behind Redesign and much more.
