The Distance is a gathering of talent and creativity that embraces and forwards an image of authenticity. The brainchild of singer/songwriter Ryan Wink and producer/songwriter Justin "JustLuv" Hanson, The Distance provokes genuine intrigue and emotional draw to a progressive yet nostalgic sound. Influenced by personal transition, the EP Less is More, is a reflection of the trials of growth, change, and the strength found in a journey of self discovery. With the contributions from Quetzal Guerrero, Andre De Santanna and Leo Costa, Less is More is an eclectic journey of sound that weaves soulful lyrics with honest and simple melody to create an experience that has the listener wanting more. All six tracks are entirely original compositions.
