RYAN & WILLIE
Ryan & Willie formed in the smoky dives around the Five Points area of East Nashville in 2010. The duo consists of Ryan Waniata (vocals, guitar) and Willie Guy Arnot (multi-instrumentalist). What initially started as two songwriters pitching songs to the Row evolved into something entirely different. Although both have a profound love for country music, they found they weren’t satisfied sticking solely to one genre. Their shared love of rock, blues, folk, RnB, funk and jazz drove them to explore where their writing could take them. Ryan & Willie have set a goal of releasing EPs that are each in a new genre. Their first EP, Amuse Boot was released in March of 2021. It showcases both their lyrical stylings and quirky arrangements. In January of 2022, Ryan & Willie released their second EP, Fall in the Void. The second EP saw them ditching the acoustic arrangements for a full-out rocker. Fall in the Void also features Moon Taxi’s Wes Bailey (keys) and Tyler Ritter (drums).
