Ryan and Bethany sang at our wedding (and Neal). They sang at many of our friends' weddings, I'm just glad they did ours before they become famous and inaccessible. One of the Third Day guys went to CCF, too, but does he respond to emails? Ryan still responds to emails, for now.
Ryan quit his job doing Techie computer stuff so that he could work for himself and do Techie computer stuff, but this time he would make his own hours and devote many hours to writing his own music. So now it has happened, Ryan has now made his final demo mix and sent it off to Ed Cash. If you know Ed Cash, put in a good word. I don't know him, but with a name like that he's got to be legit.
Here's a guy (Ryan), married to a great woman (Bethany), and they're both willing to forgo normal income in order to make music. It's hard to do that as a young married couple, other couples don't do that. Luckily Ryan is very talented and gets more Techie business than he can handle, so they've not been out on the street, but here's another couple of friends not afraid to dream and shake their lives up to make their dream happen. One of his songs has already become famous among a very large group of friends, it is a memorial to Pa Harper; you'll want to hear it at your own funeral one day. As soon as his music is publicly available, I'll let you know. If you want to read more about his process, Ryan blogs.
On a personal note to Ryan:
Ryan, we raced Mario Kart together … don't forget me.
On an impersonal note:
Third Day is a very successful group of Christian music artists, and if anyone knows Mark Lee, please ask him to give Rick a call. Rick would love that. Rick is very sorry he didn't think you were good enough for the CCF band.
