With his high, fragile falsetto and gently fingerpicked guitar, Los Angeles singer Ryan Nealon details the universality of crushing loneliness and doubt on “Paper Town,” a beautiful and emotional song that tenderly conveys the nervousness and insecurity of being the new kid in town.

Throughout What Makes A Man, Nealon flexes his muscular vocals and range to impressive effect moving with equal ease from introspective exploration to stadium rock. This is a real voice, folks.

With a heartfelt musical style reminiscent of Ben Rector and Ed Sheeran, the up-and-coming singer-songwriter who is also a passionate advocate for mental health leads us into life with an impressive openness brought out by his simple yet powerful songwriting; an enticing glimpse of the artistry that awaits us on his upcoming debut album.

I created Indie Music Center in order to give you strong emotions. It is not easy to find the rare pearl, the one that will make you vibrate, and that will give you chills. But I believe that on June 17th, I found THE ONE with Not Coming Home. It took me over thirty minutes to get over it, and I even needed a break outside in the storm.
— Niko Pirson, Indie Music Center (FR)
