RYMAN delivers beautiful record “Lucy”

Scrolling through my TikTok feed earlier this week, I stumbled upon RYMAN, an artist who immediately caught my attention. His latest release blends easy-listening sonics with a country-infused sound, delivering the expansive, atmospheric quality that defines a great ballad. Featuring elements like steel pedal, lead guitar, and thoughtfully crafted lyrics, the track creates an immersive and heartfelt listening experience.

RYMAN hails from Nashville, TN—now a hotspot for songwriters and the birthplace of many major records in both the country and pop scenes. His song Lucy was produced by Calvin Lauber, a recently relocated Nashville-based producer. According to Instagram, Lauber played a key role in the song’s production and engineering, shaping its polished yet raw emotional depth.

This was my first introduction to RYMAN, but after diving into his recent releases, it’s clear he has found his stride with this airy, country-pop sound and his honest, detail-rich storytelling. Looking forward to seeing what’s next from Mr. Wooten out of Nashville.
