(c) DECEMBER 2019 RYAN HERRICK.

Physical, signed copy of the brand new ep HEAL YOUR BONES.

"Heal Your Bones" is a collection of songs centered around the hero's journey, a universal archetype written about by the likes of Joseph Campbell and Carl Jung. The songs emerge from a psycho-spiritual perspective of being human: the quest for healing; the value of knowing your roots; memory, aging, death and dying; and the journey home.

Before this EP even became an "EP," Ryan Herrick was reaching for collaboration and musical kinship-- so he sought out his good friends just to make some music to see where it would go. The talented Chicago engineer John Abbey of Kingsize Soundlabs, songwriter Marcus Newman, drummer Charles Rumback, and singer-guitarist Joel Mongeon worked with him compose, arrange, and produce many elements of a handful of new songs.

"I think it's rare when you find friends with just the right kind of chemistry where a sort of synchronicity happens through the creative process. I'd call 'em soulmates." Ryan reflects.

Wild Mountain Thyme and Holdin' On were recorded in true Abbey/Herrick fashion-- live off the floor keeping to the tried-and-true spirit of folk-americana-roots music. Wild Mountain Thyme was recorded in Massachusetts with the help of DIY extraordinare Joel Mongeon.

"Heal Your Bones and Tumbleweed were studio creations from the ground up, but with regards to our creative approach, we were reaching for a blend of honesty with sky's-the-limit ideas. Through that process, John and I were able to dig a little deeper into the musical soil between us."

"After listening to some of Chicago singer/songwriter Ryan Herrick’s music, a couple of things stand out: He plays with a lot of passion for the material he sings about and he’s a gifted guitarist who can manipulate the strings to his will." -Music. Defined.

Recorded, mixed, and mastered by John Abbey at Kingsize Soundlabs in Chicago, IL.

Sagitta was recorded nearly live, all in one day on Earth Day 2017.

The music and lyrics on this record are a new step in songwriting for Ryan-- taking a much more direct and intimate approach while working with a band to produce a fully fleshed-out sound. Many of the songs are political; touching upon issues of Native American rights, the destructive fossil fuel industry, and political disillusionment. Spirituality still remains remains a lyrical focus and driving force behind his music-- speaking about challenges we all face as we grow and change inwardly, as well as the sacredness of all living things.

The Pre-Order of this record helped raise funds and awareness for Conscious Alliance, a Boulder-based organization that provides assistance to marginalized Native American communities in crisis through youth empowerment and hunger relief.
