Ryan Osswald is a Vermont based guitarist. At the center of his playing there is a constant search to explore soulful and abstract sounds through originals and playing songs from the American songbook and making them his own. While continuously refining his expression through songwriting, improvisation, and collaboration, it is the constant process of all of these that remains the inspiration. Whether playing solo, duo, trio, or in a quartet he is always seeking a sound that is universal, while remaining unique.
