Ryan Boos is a multidisciplinary artist working across writing, visual art, and music. His creative practice weaves together sound, image, and language to explore themes of spirituality, perception, and transformation.

In 2012, he founded Hazy Acres, originally conceived as a platform for underground artists. Over time, it evolved into an experimental writing space for his own poetry and prose—serving as a hub for creative expression and expansion.

Musically, Boos is best known for his project Nomadic Firs, under which he has released several full-length albums and has been remixed by a divers group of Artists, most notably the grammy award winning, ODESZA. His sonic palette blends lo-fi textures, ambient pop, and electronic experimentation. With his singing coming largely from an improvisational discipline.

He has also composed music for film and produces under the side project Open Channel, releasing two EPs and a series of singles that push his sound into more atmospheric and instrumental territories.

As a visual artist, Boos works at the intersection of painting, photography, collage, and text. He digitally manipulates his work along with found materials, creating layered, immersive images that reflect a creative and open approach to design. In 2025 he expanded his visual arts by launching the Etsy shop, Healers Canvas.

Boos began his journey in the arts as a promoter and DJ in Kalamazoo, MI, where he organized The Reggae Sound System and co-founded various independent production collectives. Focused on house, techno, and dub, these events served as a catalyst for his ongoing collaborations with artists and musicians in the underground scene.

Since 1988, Robin Hood has targeted poverty in New York City. By applying sound investment principles to philanthropy, we’ve helped the best programs save lives and change fates.
