Ryan Pulford is an American singer-songwriter/producer from Glen Rock, New Jersey. He got his start writing and producing music after meeting his soon-to-be mentors, A R I Z O N A (who also happened to be from the same hometown) in New York City in late 2012. The band and Ryan have remained very close ever since; as mentors/guardians and collaborators as a co-writer on the band's 2017 album, GALLERY, where he contributed to the writing of highly successful songs like "Running", "Ain't Gonna Leave", "Feed The Beast" and "Summer Days". He continues his work as a close collaborator of the band while gearing up for his official solo debut in 2021.
