Hagan ultimately plans to expand his reach in the U.S. to become a critically-acclaimed musical artist.
Pop musical artist, Ryan Hagan, is a voice that's crashed into the music scene, and he's quickly turning heads. His first two singles charted on the radio within one year and he's just released his third, "Don't Let Me Stop." And, it's looking like it won't be his last.
Produced by Grammy(r)-nominated, multi-platinum producer, Bryan Todd, and co-written by Hagan, "Don't Let Me Stop," speaks to people who have been burned in love and need to learn to trust again.
"It's my most authentic song yet," Hagan says.
Hagan and Todd's previous two collaborations, "You Deserve Better" and "Reset" charted on the radio in the U.K. on Music Week's Commercial Pop, Upfront Club and Black Music (formerly "Urban") charts. It went as high as number seven.
Hagan has not always been an aspiring singer/songwriter. His background is steeped in athletics and he's a five-time national wrestling champion. He was also a powerful football and track-and-field athlete during high school. He became a top recruit in his class with the certainty of enrolling in a Division 1 college, but some significant, damaging injuries twisted that path. Always having a passion for music, he decided to give it a serious shot.
So, how did Hagan get here? It all started when a friend connected him with Kim Wood Sandusky, former vocal coach for Beyonce and Destiny's Child.
"I got an audition with her and she asked me to sing something. After 15 seconds, she said, 'We're going to work together.' The rest is pretty much history," Hagan says.
