Sean and Patrick Ryan are a father and son duo of songsters and storytellers.

Their music is traditional and modern, laced with the spice of good humor.

Their harmonies are rich and smooth, their guitar accompaniment is intricate and complementary, and their humor is mischievous but gentle.

The Ryan repertoire ranges from delightful children's songs to salty, sea-faring ballads and sing-a-long songs.

Their concert instrument selection includes two Taylor six-string guitars, a Taylor twelve-string guitar, a Martin D-35 guitar, a classic Guild F-412 twelve-string guitar and a Gibson mandolin. Sean also adds the traditional touch of a pennywhistle to many of their songs.

They are Sean and Patrick Ryan, father and son, two generations of musical appreciation in the folk tradition.

They live in Petoskey, Michigan and perform throughout the Midwest.
