"Musicians are often referred to as ‘artists’, but artists are few. Ryan is much more than a guitarist, he is an artist.
His ability is outstanding and this allows him to effortlessly focus on what really matters in a band, making great music as a team.
As a drummer, I have especially enjoyed working with Ryan as his timing and grooves are always snappy and accurate. Guitarists sometimes isolate themselves from the rhythm section, but Ryan is always fully aware of the whole. He locks in and flows naturally with the dynamics, then taking the lead, launches into “wow, how’s he doing that?!” territory.
As a recording engineer, I appreciate Ryan’s professionalism, maturity and intelligence. His technique is constantly pushing new limits and he knows how to get the best out of his gear. There are no problems, issues or ego with Ryan. He is confident yet humble and so easy to get along with.”

He has a calm yet confident approach to every aspect of making music from writing to recording, and has no fear throwing in new ideas and pushing the boundaries. In short, I feel priveleged to work with such an outstanding musician and person, and have an absolute riot whilst doing so."

"It's such a pleasure to work with a musician who manages to combine an exceptional and intuitive ability with a such a strong and genuine sense of enthusiasm. By rights, Ryan Robinson ought to be pretty arrogant - but in fact he is anything but this. His fluidity, versatility and professionalism where guitar playing is concerned is something that if you're not careful, you could almost take for granted. But then, it is fantastic to be able to have complete trust in a musician's mastery of their instrument in this way."

I have been extremely impressed with both Ryan's versatility, professionalism and ability in excelling in so many musical genres. In addition to this he is an extremely pleasant person who's fun to work with. I'm sure he'll be a name to look out for in the future."

"Ryan has a wonderful feel, a natural sense of dynamics and taste to his playing. Music always comes first before flash show-off chops. It is a pleasure to play with such a naturally talented musician."
