Ryan St. Pierre
Ryan St. Pierre was working in the trades and waiting tables in the evenings at a local restaurant. On weekends he was working as a fashion and print add model in Toronto, ON. In the early summer of 2001, Ryan received a call from his modelling agency that would surely and definitely change his future in unimaginable ways. They asked if he was musical in any way. Ryan immediately admitted that he was a singer/songwriter and could play several instruments. Ryan went to the audition not knowing what to expect but confidently brought and delivered an original song for the unknown hosts to hear and assess. “There were so many people auditioning for this mysterious musical opportunity, I truly didn’t think that I would receive a call back”. A few days later the phone rang again. Ryan’s agency told him that the label executives at the audition loved his original music and were calling him back for a second audition. At this time, Ryan was informed of the opportunity that he was auditioning for. He learned that several celebrity actors and musicians (Joshua Morrow, Eddie Cibrian, Howie Dorough, and C.J. Huyer) were amalgamating their resources to form Canada’s newest and hottest “Boy Band”. Although this wasn’t the musical direction Ryan had in mind, he didn’t for a moment consider passing up such a lucrative opportunity. The second audition was a success, and Ryan was offered one of two lead spots to front the band. In the Fall of 2001 Ryan officially signed a recording and management deal with EMI/Sextant Records to lead the newly created Boy Band group “Drop4”. In 2003 after two years with the band, Ryan made a difficult but important decision to leave “Drop4” and pursue a different musical direction on his own terms, utilizing his creative ideas and songs. In 2006, two songs that Ryan wrote were nominated for “Rock Song Of The Year”, and “Inspirational Song Of The Year”, at the 27th Annual Covenant Awards. NOW - after a nearly ten-year hiatus, Ryan is back on the music scene debuting a new solo album “Back To You” and ready to make his mark once again.
