Ryan Herrick

Spiritual seeker and humanitarian, Ryan Herrick has sojourned guitar-in-hand from the mountains of Vermont to the foothills of Chicago's skyscrapers and beyond. The guitar, his main accomplice, serves as the brush with which to paint his experiences as an inner journeyman; a wayward son who left home in search of himself. His deep awareness of past life memories and ancient ways stoke the creative fires of his soul, inspiring him to express art through sound. Intricately weaving his passion for mysticism with musical improvisation, there is a deep meditative quality in his songwriting and compositions. Based in Northern Illinois, Herrick is a singer-songwriter, guitarist, composer and performer. He writes and record music under his own name as well as with roots-rock band, The JAB. In 2020, he co-wrote the score for the upcoming documentary film, The Middle Way, with CJ Johnson.
