X-WR-CALDESC:TICKETED!\n\nMike Ryan’s musical story began in the Lone Star 
 state\, his first eXposure to music was from his grandfather\, who directe
 d the TeXas National Guard Band for over 30 years. He became one of Ryan’s
  biggest musical influences\, first learning the clarinet from him – among
  other instruments.\n\n“I found out after one short lesson with my grandfa
 ther that there was way more to this music thing than I had ever realized 
 before. My grandfather was able to make people fall in love with music in 
 a way that no one else could. I was very grateful for that growing up.”\n
 \nFrom there\, Ryan taught himself how to play the guitar – though he admi
 ts he had to learn the art of patience. “I didn’t have lessons or anything
 . I just had some eXtra time on my hands when I finished high school footb
 all\, so I picked up a guitar and hit the ground running.” Needless to say
 \, he was hooked.\n\n“The way I learned was mostly by listening to the rad
 io to figure out chords. I would lock myself in a room and play for hours.
  I would play my G\, C\, D\, and if it didn’t sound right\, I would just m
 ove the capo up\, until I figured out the right chord. I taught myself how
  to play the way that it worked for me. Maybe learning from other people c
 ould’ve made certain things easier\, but I think learning it my way might’
 ve helped make it stick. I think sometimes if you learn things on your own
 \, you learn them better.”\n\nBesides the hit records\, Ryan’s resume also
  includes winning New Male Vocalist of the Year at the TeXas Regional Radi
 o Awards in 2015. The list of sold-out venues he’s played around the count
 ry continues to grow. He’s also headlined several times at Billy Bob’s TeX
 as an iconic nightclub in Fort Worth\, admitting that it’s a special place
 .\n\n“Growing up in San Antonio\, I really didn’t hear that much about it.
  It wasn’t until I moved up to North TeXas that I started seeing all these
  bands I loved coming through there. It’s so huge. It seems like the kind 
 of place that even if folks aren’t too familiar with the band that is play
 ing\, they go there because it’s Billy Bob’s. They have a good time there\
 , and it’s a good family atmosphere. You can bring the kids. That’s a litt
 le bit different than other venues that you don’t get to see that often. T
 o see the looks on some of these little kids’ faces\, when you walk by the
 m – and they get this wide-eyed stare because they think you’re some kind 
 of famous person\, it such a cool vibe all the way around. It’s a great pl
 ace – aside from the historical significance of it. It’s just a great plac
 e to play because of the people that show up and the energy and the electr
 icity that eXists in the building.”\n\nBilly Bob’s proved to be a critical
  spot in the career of Mike Ryan – without him even being there. Renowned 
 songwriter and producer Chris DuBois\, who co-founded Sea Gayle Music Publ
 ishing in Nashville\, said it was at the “World’s Largest Honky Tonk” that
  he first became aware of Mike and his music in 2013.\n\n“We had two of ou
 r artists playing there on back-to-back nights\,” says DuBois. “I was hang
 ing out back in the green room\, and I ran into Robert Gallagher\, who had
  been the backstage manager at Billy Bob’s for years. We sat and talked a 
 little bit\, then the neXt night\, he came back and said ‘I’ve got a CD I 
 want to give you. I see a lot of artists pass through here\, but this guy 
 has something special. I stuck it in my pocket\, and brought it back with 
 me to Nashville. I get a lot of CD’s\, and with all due respect to Robert\
 , my eXpectations were not super-high. But\, when I put the CD in my jeep\
 , I thought ‘This guy is really good.’ So\, we set up a meeting the neXt t
 ime he was in Nashville.” DuBois offered Mike a publishing deal with Sea G
 ayle right there on the spot.\n\nWith the number of discs that DuBois rece
 ives in an average week\, what was it about Mike Ryan? DuBois says\, “I’ve
  been in this business for going on twenty-five years\, and when you hear 
 something that is different\, you can’t describe what it is that strikes a
  chord in you. You can just tell. He just had that thing in his voice that
  made him great. I just heard that special quality\, and he had written al
 l the songs on that first CD. That said to me that he had skills as a writ
 er.”\n\nWith the release of his newest single\, “Damn Good Goodbye”\, Ryan
  is hoping to make more music that his TeXas audience loves\, but he also 
 wants to take his music all the way around the world. “I consider myself v
 ery fortunate to have the support from TeXans that we do. We’ve actually b
 een playing in the surrounding states for the past couple of years\, and w
 e’re getting further and further away from home all the time. I just want 
 to keep making music that I am proud of and that I believe in. TeXas has a
  lot of great fans\, and I know the rest of the United States does as well
 . I’m ready to take it to them!”\n\nTanner Fenoglio\n\nBetween his 9 and 4
  year old daughters and a newly added 7 month old boy\, Tanner and his wif
 e Brittany\, who is a professional photographer\, have found themselves fl
 ying by the seat of their pants at this stage of their lives. 'I would be 
 lying if I said balancing family time\, being a dad/husband and life on th
 e road was easy but we've learned to be flexible with each others schedule
 s and date nights get planned months in advance now instead of days'\, Tan
 ner said jokingly when asked how he and his wife balance their 2 busy sche
 dules.\n\nComing off the release of their first full length album 'Lucky M
 an'\, The Tanner Fenoglio Band is as busy as they have ever been and 2019 
 shows no signs slowing down. Recorded down in Dripping Spring\, Tx at 'The
  Zone' and produced by Grammy Award winner Lloyd Maines\, 'Lucky Man' is a
  culmination of 10 songs that really shows the diversity and depth of Tann
 er's songwriting ability. “Tanner's songs are so soulful and true to life\
 ,” said Maines. “I can tell he's lived and breathed them for a while. I'm 
 very proud of this record. No glitz\, no gloss...just real.” \n\nTanner ha
 s a knack for writing creative love songs like 'Anymore' and 'Interstate' 
 off their new record which serves as a core reason he has been able to con
 nect with fans all over the US. 'I have learned to be more vulnerable with
  my songwriting and focus more on writing/creating songs that stay true to
  myself opposed to trying to right the next 'hit song'\, says Tanner when 
 asked about how his songwriting has evolved over the last couple years.\n
 \nOver the last couple months\, they have been playing shows across Texas 
 promoting their new album\, making new partnerships to grow the band and p
 ushing themselves on a constant basis to put together the best live show p
 ossible. Tanner has said numerous times he believes the live show is what 
 creates loyal fans that will support you through the ups and downs and tha
 t is starting to prove itself to be true.\n\nTanner is incredibly grateful
  for the growth and support that the band has received over the last 2 yea
 rs and it is what keeps him motivated to keep making music.
