Traditional western and country music. Ranching, rodeo & other agricultural tragedies. Fan of cold beer, gin, military history & campfires.

As a singer-songwriter, Christie brings his outlaw country, roots-style set to life with foot stomping, toe tappin' tunes, quick-witted humour  and stories of the west, heartbreak, hope, and most importantly, home. Either solo or with his band "Acoustic Mayhem", a fundamental understanding of western culture and an unmistakable trademark style, old favourites and new songs are always fresh as the prairie wind.

Ryan Bingham's music defies classification with folk, blues, country, and rock 'n roll all part of the recipe. It's authentic and powerful and the songs are rooted in real life - in survival and sacrifice and, yes, sometimes just having a damn good time. Nobody making music today has a voice like Bingham’s, one that has the worn and weary character of an old fighter more than twice his age but the power of a young man. It’s an intoxicating mixture that reaches new levels with the support of his talented band. Bingham is a singer-songwriter, not a product, and his latest studio album American Love Song movingly shows how the overarching theme of the personal and communal American existence can encompass triumph and tragedy from one moment to the next.
