Ryan Stewart’s passion is music. He has come a long way from the child who was expected to practice the piano before playing with friends, or the teenager who spent his lunch hour playing the piano on the stage at his local high school. Stewart has now fulfilled a goal of a studio released album, Equanimity, a collection of intricately spun melodies that fans have described as being “hauntingly beautiful”. Raised in Salt Lake City, Stewart says his mother is his inspiration.
