70. Rylan Whalen - The Disenchantment of Modern Music

Rylan Whalen was born in Burlington Ontario, January 9th 1995. In his early years, Whalen was clearly disenchanted with the music his peers were embracing. Therefore, he took it upon himself to dive deep into the sounds that truly moved his soul. His thirst for music landed him exploring a vast variety of those before him, from the 60s and 70s, classical and soul. Whether in his parent’s record collection or the infinite library of the internet. By the end of high school, he had a need to absorb every documentary regarding these mythical records, and bands he could find. Being captivated by the words of groups far his senior, the young writer developed a style of his own. Paying tribute to those he was moulded by, yet always concocting his own original, modern and honest sound. Searching for truth, yearning for the divine, otherworldly energy music can give back. Whalen left his family, friends and country to join Danny down south. Allowing for vast expansion within their musical skills, influences and counterparts. Such a risky and courageous choice allowed the then boys, to embark on a journey of ridiculous proportions. Defining their friendship, sound and journey. Finding himself back home, nearly 5 years later, it can be very well said that this man breathes melody. His lyricism and stylistic approaches to his singing is on full display. He continues searching for a way to put life into words, and further connect with all and everyone around him.
