He didn’t chase the spotlight. He built a bonfire of truth—and let the crowd find him.
Ryan Necci never set out to be a full-time musician and songwriter.
He was a graphic designer. A weekend warrior.
Then life cracked wide open.
A brain tumor.
A rescue dog fighting cancer.
A marriage ending.
And through it all—songs poured out.
🎶 Songs that bruised like Springsteen.
🖤 Lyrics that cut like Isbell.
🔥 A growl that hits you in the gut like Stapleton.
One video. One verse. One million views later… the world started listening. And they haven’t stopped.
In this episode of Americana Curious, Ryan gets real about:
Turning heartbreak into harmony
Writing for Luke Grimes, Flatland Cavalry, and more
Why authenticity—not algorithms—is your superpower
How a raw Instagram clip resurrected a 10-year-old song
And the letting go that saved his life
If you’ve ever been told to chase trends or keep quiet about your pain—this one’s for you.
