LIVE ON STAGE - ORIAN & Robert John Hope

ORIAN

Having performed throughout Europe and released two albums as Joey Ryan for almost a decade, 2019 saw Ryan morph into ORIAN; a natural progression that reflected the songwriters' move away from his folk and acoustic roots into a more indie alternative and atmospheric space. Born and raised in Co. Wexford, Ireland, after a move overseas to Berlin, Germany in 2016, a new sound and vibration was emerging that echoed the songwriter's journey to his new home; soaking in the sounds, vibrations and colours of the city.

After independently releasing his first two singles Tryin’ and Holding On in May and November 2019, ORIAN achieved support from Irish radio stations such as RTE Radio One, BBC Ulster, RED FM, BEAT 102103, KCLR, Dublin City FM and Shannonside, alongside support from Radio Eins, TIDE and Fritz Radio in Germany.

With influences ranging from The National to Bon Iver; Hozier to The War On Drugs; ORIAN is guitar melody-based, atmospheric indie folk; with strong yet delicate vocals.

‘ORIAN’s lyrics are emotional and touching and are accompanied by vocals that are beautifully captivating’ Yellow And Black
